Red/Green Meet—Saturday, December 4: Whitworth University

                 Why Red/Green?

This event is designed to help the kids get to know each other.  The coaches will divide the team into two teams (Red & Green), then they will have a cheer off, then get to know each other in the context of a developmental meet.  This meet is for everyone from a brand new to swimming 6 year old, to a veteran of 10 years of swimming.  It will be a lot of fun, get signed up by Tuesday, November 30th. 

Our annual Red/Green Charity Meet is coming up!  The entry fee is $5 and a donation of food to the Second Harvest Food Bank or a donation of clothing or toys to Caritas Outreach Ministries.

Jingle Bell Splash Invitational—December 10-12: Kroc Center, Coeur d’Alene, ID
