SWIM-A-THON IS MAY 9--GET THOSE PLEDGES ROLLING!
Each swimmer is being asked to raise one month worth of dues. Swim-a-thon money helps cover pool rental, training equipment, and other expenses. We'd love for every available swimmer to participate!
Congratulations to Harm Jan Steenhuis and Dan Sheahan who competed at Masters Nationals last weekend. Click here to read all about it.
Coach Keddy would like to have an Age Group Parent Meetingon Tuesday, May 8 starting at 5:30 PM. We'll discuss summer schedule, Swim-a-thon, and other Age Group related issues. Last time, we only had a dozen or so parents attend, so please show up! :)
Our annual Awards Ceremony will be on Wednesday, May 23 at Gonzaga University. A team picture will be taken at 6:30, followed by dessert and awards at 7:00. We'd ask all swimmers and families to please attend.
WE NEED PICTURES FOR OUR SLIDESHOW! Please email Coach Kevin your photos from the past year, and he will forward them to swimmers Stephanie Bayless and Faith Barr, who will be putting together this year's slide show.
Finally, a huge congratulations to former Waves Swimmer Rachel Millet who was named Freshman Athlete of the Year for the University of Idaho (Rachel is at the center of picture). Not only did she dominate in the pool, but she carried a 4.0 GPA as well--congratulations!
