BAM News: Still BAMFest and BAMFest Volunteers

Bainbridge Aquatic Masters
Happy Wednesday, BAM!
 
I’m keeping an eye on the weather forecast, wondering when the rain will come, and the forecast tells me: not yet. I know my plants would appreciate the water, but I’m enjoying these bonus sunny days.
 
BAMFest is just two and a half weeks away. (The registration deadline is one and a half weeks away.)
Congratulations to the fifteen BAMmers who have already signed up, and especially to Archie and Cynthia who will be swimming in their first-ever Masters meet!

We still need volunteers! I’ve talked about Timers (choice of two shifts, four hours each), Pool Deck Volunteers (choice of four shifts, about two hours each), and today I’ll ask for volunteers in the final category: food donation. If you have no time, this is the job for you. Add a box of protein bars, some packets trail mix, a container of muffins, or a bag of small apples to your shopping list and drop the food off at pool Sunday morning (or Saturday evening). That’s it. Take a look at the SignUp – there are openings for each category of food (protein snacks, fruit, or baked goods).
 
News for the week:
  • Coach April is offering special meet practices, complete with block start training, at the 11:45 practice on Tuesday, Sept. 30 and Tuesday, Oct. 7. Look for these practices in the SignUp.
  • Sign up to volunteer at BAMFest!
See you at the pool.
