Mini update: New swim team suit and team store! (and call for sponsors/fundraising note)

Good afternoon team,

We are happy to announce that we are offering a new team swim suit, available through our team store with Q swimwear. Deadline to purchase is Dec 10th so that shipments arrive on time before Y State!

Link to the store here: https://qteamstore.com/collections/svya-tritons

Thanks to Mary Taylor for the help in setting everything up! Designs look great, and I have worked with people who used Q swimwear products before. Fabric type is about 50/50 Polyester and PBT which is about the same composition advertised by the Speedo endurance jammer (one of the most common jammers on the team, and my go-to; and this one is slightly cheaper than buying from Amazon).

Unrelated side note: We are getting together a big team sponsor banner to hang out on the deck. If you have or know a company that is looking to donate to our team, I am sending logo information to include on that banner. Hope to have it up for 2026!

As you may have seen, our blocks have lost their fins on the top. There were several that have become unsafe to use, and the decision was made to scrap them to avoid swimmers being hurt. Our next fundraising goal will be to replace our racing blocks entirely, as replacing just the fins would have been over 2,000 for just one. Blocks themselves range from 4000-7000, and the average lifespan is around 10-15 years. I can see these blocks lasting a few more years, but we do need to start fundraising now to avoid a situation where we have broken blocks and no replacements lined up.

Any revenue from our Poinsettia fundraiser will be 100% going towards new blocks! Please check that out if you haven't already: https://www.gomotionapp.com/team/recpssvy/page/calendar#/team-events/upcoming/1686868
