Hello Penguin Parents, 

Attached is our first Penguin Post of the swim season. This weekly newsletter includes important information about the upcoming week and season, as well as general reminders and a message from the coaches.

This upcoming Saturday, June 8th is our first big event, Time Trials.

We are asking all swimmers and families to arrive by 7:30am to help with set-up and for swimmers to warm-up. Please RSVP your swimmer by Wednesday, June 4. (To learn how, please use this SwimTopia help article.)

This is a Penguins-only event where all swimmers will be timed in as many events as they are eligible in the same structure as a regular meet. Time Trials provide the coaches and swimmers with a baseline or “seed” time in each event and helps the coaches determine which meets and events in which to place swimmers for the subsequent weeks. Ideally, we hope to see all our Penguins at the event as it is a great meet simulation and an important bonding experience for the team.

Friendly reminder for parents - without parent volunteers, we will not be able to run this event and/or any of our swim meets. Please sign up in SwimTopia to volunteer at the meet ~ we have many positions available based on experience and comfort levels.

During this event, we will NOT be selling concessions but will be hosting a “Grab & Snack'' table for our hungry Penguins. Please volunteer to donate individually wrapped breakfast snacks and/or drinks through the linked Sign Up Genius and bring your donation to the Time Trials on Saturday morning.

As always, if you have any questions and/or need any additional information, please email your friendly Team Reps - Tobii & Kristin at [email protected] or find one of us on the pool deck.
