Congratulations to Patty Furukawa and Ray Borzone for
receiving the Bob Rolph Memorial Nadadores Award of Excellence
As a volunteer-driven organization, MVN Masters is forever grateful to the many talented volunteers who give their time, talent, and expertise to help all phases of our program.
Among those volunteers, there are some whose service stands out in its scope, its impact on the program, and the number of members who have benefited from their efforts on the local level.
Their outstanding dedication and commitment to the Nadadores can be seen in their team spirit and willingness to volunteer at swim meets and other team activities.

5. Words from Coach Mark
Staying Motivated
Winter can be a challenging time to stay motivated, but remember, the rewards are worth it! A healthier, stronger version of yourself is just around the corner. Consistent swimming boosts your overall health and fitness and enhances your appearance, energy levels, and social life.
The psychological benefits are just as significant: increased confidence, self-esteem, and relief from depression, anxiety, and holiday stress. If you're committed to your health and well-being, it's time to get serious and stick to a regular swimming routine. The immense benefits will keep you motivated as you start to see the results.
Remember, action creates motivation.
Keep swimming and watch yourself transform!
