Otters Updates Week of 5/12

L-S Otters Board
Good evening,
 
Just a few quick updates.
 
This Wednesday, May 14th and Thursday, May 15th we will be holding the new swimmer evaluations at the L-S YMCA from 5:30 to 7:00.  This is just a pop in and you don't need to be there the entire time.  Please come anytime during the time window that works for your swimmer.  A board member will be there each night to answer any questions you may have for the upcoming season.
 
Time trials are Sunday, June 1st.  This was in the last email and is on the calendar sent in that email along with the calendar on the Otters website.  In early March we had in an email that time trials would possibly be on June 8th.  This isn't the case and we apologize for any confusion.
 
You can order your swimmer suits from SwimOutlet on our team page.  Remember the store is always open for suits and spirit wear but there is a 2 week turnaround.  Please make sure you order the suit in time for our first home meet on June 17th.
 
Caps are also available to order on the SwimOutlet team page.  There seems to be an issue to customize it if you want your swimmers last name on the cap.  If you aren't customizing the cap you are good to order.  We have reached out to the SwimOutlet team and hope this will be fixed ASAP.  If you need both a suit and customized cap we suggest waiting to order both at the same time so you only have to pay for shipping once.
 
Link for suits, caps and spirit wear is below.
 
 
Please remember practice starts on Monday, May 19th...just one week away!
 
Registration closes on Monday, May 26th...only 2 more weeks to sign up!
