Swimathon 2021 - This Weekend

Tim Senholtz

Hello WEST Families,

 

Our coaches have been hard at work educating our groups about the importance of Swimathon and I hope you are too!

 

For this weekend, we have made a few changes to schedule that can be found online here. A PDF can also be viewed here. The most notable changes are below:

 

Practice Schedule For Saturday & Sunday, April 17 - 18:

*M/W/Sat PreComp & SwimFit: 2:00 - 3:00pm

 

Sunday

*T/H/Sun PreComp & SwimFit: 2:00 - 3:00pm

 

*Please note that the long distance swimming spirit lives on in our PreComp and SwimFit practices this weekend as well, as they have also been extended.

 

Swimmers will not have counters to count for them, however, coaches have structured their practices to enable for easy counting amongst their groups. Each swimmer should know how many laps they complete.

 

We understand that this year’s Swimathon is operating much differently than normal. Our coaches are working hard to ensure that our swimmers embrace the spirit of the fundraiser while having a great time with their teammates. We hope to have a few safe and socially distant fun surprises planned for them :)

 

Please don’t hesitate to contact us if you have questions or concerns.
