Fun -- Fitness -- Friends
Friends
Friends will be the hot topic of this month. Denny Chapman, our lane six swimmer, lost his wife Karen recently. The amount of care and concern expressed by the swimmers has been greatly appreciated by Denny and his family. Our thoughts and prayers are with him and his family.
Fitness
The holiday season is quickly approaching. The season of eating (I love this time of year) will soon be upon us. And it is a good thing we also enjoy fitness. Remember the phrase, "Calories in vs. Calories out." The "calories out" is what we do best at practice. In order to help maintain that caloric expenditure, practice will be held on Thanksgiving Day and the Friday & Saturday after Thanksgiving. Practices will be held from 7-8 am for all three of those days.
Fun
Our web page gets about 1,000 visits per month. Isn't that just amazing!!! If you are out of town then go to the site and pull up one of the many past workouts. Check out the various topics covered and written by swimmers in our program who have contributed articles. Hopefully in the near future a weight training program will be included (as soon as coach gets it written). We are also looking at the possibility of spotlighting swimmers on the web page thanks to Dave Andersen. That is pretty fun stuff.
That Time of Year
It is time to pay the annual fee for the program. For the third year, the annual fee and the monthly fee will have no increases. The annual fee will stay at $50 and the monthly fee will stay at $75 per quarter. Over the next two weeks the yearly registration form will be handed out at practice. These need to be returned by December 17 (but the earlier the better) in order to maintain our insurance for the program. Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
Save the Date: our annual holiday social will be Sunday, December 11th -- details coming soon.
