March 3/21 Update: Upcoming Events and timeline :)

Joseph Shelly

Hi all!

Sorry for the lack of updates last week, I had one queued up but just realized it didn't go through :(

I'll start with the vote update I wanted to share:

  • First place right now is Kraken with 9 votes
  • Second place is Triton with 8 votes
  • Third is Manta Ray with 5 votes

Reminder that votes can be changed up to Monday 3/27! Tuesday is when I will close voting and will announce the winner at the Banquet on Friday 3/31. If you haven't voted yet, vote!

Next order of business is a list of upcoming events!

My apologies to everyone who has asked me about Swim Up The Skagit. I have had several questions (even with some people who aren't on the team) ask about it, and I thought I had addressed it in a previous newsletter but have not. Our Swim Up The Skagit event still does not have an exact date pinned down from our November parent meeting. At the meeting, we decided it was best to wait until after Regionals and the holiday season to plan such a big event (full facility access for SVYA and family), and I am meaning to bring a spotlight to it during the banquet.

After attending several USA/YMCA coaches meetings the last couple of weeks, our coaching staff have decided the following events/meets are close to confirmed for our Spring/Summer schedule:

  • April 21-23 SCM (Meter pool) meet in Anacortes (USA Swimming)
  • May 7th (home meet)
  • May 20-21 meet up in Bellingham (USA Swimming)
  • May 28th - Everett Y meet (YMCA)
  • June 11th - home meet
  • June 24-25 meet at Snohomish Aquatic Center (USA Swimming)
  • July 29th Snohomish Y host

A lot of teams and swim entities do not have their full information out that far in advance, so a lot of details are missing including a few meets that our team has attended in the past. I will be adding to this list as we go along and will keep you all updated!

We plan on the following events as well, dates TBD:

  • Street fair day (This runs alongside the meet on April 21-23, but we can figure a time to all check out the street fair together)
  • June Lake Swim introduction
  • July Swim Team Picnic
  • August biathlon

Our Lake days on June/July/August are planned to take place at Lake Samish, but more information will be decided soon :)

Thank you all so much for helping out thus far!

 

Looking forward to the next seasons,
