WEATHER REMINDER:
It is going to be very hot this week. Please send your swimmers with a cold drink for practice. Many of our little ones don’t realize how much they are working in the water and the coaches will encourage them to keep hydrated. Please keep an eye on your email when the forecast calls for storms during practice times and/or meets.
Also, please check the website (www.lmtswim.com) on a regular basis. Key areas to look at are: Events (you must be signed in to view events, commit to events, and sign up for jobs), Team News, and Team Calendar. All the dates for the season can be found under Team Events.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend!
See you at the pool,
Coach Kathryn
