Good morning Seahawks families!

Week 1 is in the books and we are so proud of all our swimmers who came out this week for practice and evaluations. It was great to see our returning swimmers jump back into the water and to meet new families. 

Please read this email thoroughly as we have A LOT planned for this week. As always, reach out with any questions.

NEW PRACTICE SCHEDULE

Pre Team starts this week! Please note the new practice times for June 2- June 16th. We won't have practice on Monday, June 1st because of picture day.

TEAM PICTURE AND POPSICLES

Our team picture is on Monday, June 1st and this is for all swimmers- both Seahawks and pre team. Team shirts will be distributed and will be worn for the picture. See the schedule below.

JUNIOR COACHES

Wear your junior coach shirt for the team picture and bring your shirts from last summer to trade in, if needed. Please plan to stay after the team picture for a short training session. Sign ups are open to help out for pre team practices and Time Trials here.

TIME TRIALS

Time Trials is unique because it’s a meet just for our team. It gives new swimmers the opportunity to experience how a swim meet works in a fun, supportive environment before competing against other teams. It’s also a great chance for all swimmers to get official times in their events without the added pressure of disqualifications.

You must declare whether your swimmer will be attending or not attending by Wednesday, June 3rd at midnight. 

Steps to declare your swimmer:

1. Log into your Swimtopia app or go to our website vouseahawks.swimtopia.com

2. Click on "Meets and Events" and find Time Trials or click here. It looks like the picture below.

3. Click on Meet Entry and you should see a screen that will let you declare whether your swimmer is attending or not attending. Please let us know either way! 

4. Please sign up for a job if you haven't already. As you can see, we still need 8 jobs filled. We need all hands on deck to run these meets! Thank you, in advance! 

WEEKLY THEME

Each week, we will be encouraging team spirit with a theme. This week is SEAHAWKS SPIRIT.  Wear your new shirts and Seahawks apparel!  Swimmers will enjoy special treats after each practice. 

APPAREL

Please support our team by purchasing apparel. Check out some of our new designs and colors. The deadline for this store is midnight June 1st. The link to the shop is here.
