Swimathon + More
The annual Swim-a-Thon is just a two days away! Join us
this Thursday, July 4th, for this fun and important event. Swimmers will
swim as many laps as they can in one hour and then will be rewarded
with a pancake breakfast directly after. Recognition will be given to
the top lap swimmers in each age group.
All
swimmers should arrive at 8:15 and be ready to swim at 8:30. Volunteers
helping with set-up should come at 7:45 and all other volunteers at
8:10. Ask friends and family to donate either by the lap or a flat rate. Each swimmer should raise at least $20.19 and proceeds go to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society. Donations can be made at Palisades Porpoises Swim Team 2019 Swim-A-Thon and will be due at the end of August.
Last year we raised over $8000 in for this important cause in memory of Palisades Porpoise Clare Schmidt. Let's see how much we can help this year!
Today at 6 pm is deadline to sign up for tomorrow's meet.
Tomorrow it's Porpoises v. Merrimack Maniacs at home, warm-ups at 4:50 pm.
Thursday is the 4th of July Swimathon and Pancake Breakfast. No afternoon practices.
Friday's pep rally features field games and a potluck.
Saturday the Porpoises are away at Inverness Forest Rec in Potomac. Order your Division F t-shirts by noon, see attachment.
Sunday is the Relay Carnival, see Coach Gerri's tentative line-up, subject to change, and confirm your availability.
Remember: Team Photo will be Wednesday, July 10 after the swim meet warm-ups.
