This Week!
Hello Dolphin Families!
I hope you all had a nice Memorial Day weekend. Can you believe we have our first meet this Saturday?! Our first meet will be an AWAY meet with the Foxridge Foxes. To see where they are located you can use the Pool Maps page.
I will be sending out information regarding the meet once I get the information from Foxridge which should be tomorrow or Wednesday.
In the meantime, below is some info and reminders for THIS week.
MORNING PRACTICES: Morning practices start tomorrow! See the Practice Schedule for details.
MEET SIGN-UP: It’s time! It’s time! Please use the Sign-Up Calendar to mark your swimmer(s) as “attending” or “not attending” the June 3rd meet. If you are new to the team and are not sure which events your swimmer(s) want to swim in, please leave the events blank and Coach Emilie will pick individual events for them. If you are not going to be there, please be sure to mark them as not attending.
The deadline to respond is TUESDAY, MAY 30 @ 5:00pm so please do this ASAP. We need answers from everyone before that deadline or we will be making frantic phone calls trying to get an answer. Please and Thank You!
VOLUNTEERS: While you’re signing up your swimmer(s) you can go ahead and sign-up for a volunteer position too! All of the meets are now open for both swimmer sign-up and volunteer positions.
ORIENTATION HELP: If you are a new family and weren’t able to come to our Orientation Day check out the Orientation page. You will find the Orientation slideshow there and a link to last year’s zoom orientation. Also, there is a TON of information under the Meet Information tab that you might find helpful.
FINAL STROKE & TURN JUDGE CLASS: If you have been thinking about getting Stroke & Turn certified but missed the other classes, this is the LAST chance!

JASON LEZAK: For our more seasoned swimmers, 8-time Olympic medalist and world record holder, Jason Lezak, will be hosting a swim clinic at the Hills West pool on Friday, June 2. The cost is $75 per swimmer. Details are on the Sign-Up Calendar.
This is a totally optional event. If you are not attending this event, please attend your regular swim practice at Dam West.
MOCK MEET: Also on Friday, June 2 , Coach Emilie will use the 7:30am and 8:30am practices to have swimmers go through a "mock meet" using the Starter unit, false start rope and heating chairs so that they can learn what to expect at a meet. They will learn how to move through heating, what the Starter sounds like, what a "false start" sounds like and what to do when they hear it. This will be especially useful for any swimmer that has not yet been to a meet. It will also be excellent practice for relays. In preparation for our first meet there will not be games on this Friday.
That’s it for this week! Meet details coming soon!
