LAC Email 11/29/2023

Clyde Smith

   I hope you all had a good relaxing Thanksgiving.   I am actually typing into our website in the hopes that the font of the email comes to your devices better.  I know you won't hesitate to let me know.  

  Now onto some information to share:

  1. Liberty University and ISCA are hosting the overlow swimmers from the US Open Swimming meet being held in Greensboro today through Saturday.  I have spoken with the meet director at the swim meet and they have reduced the cost of admission to $5 per spectator for LAC families.  (Doug came through for us).  With this event having the potential of having future USA Swimming National Team members, the opportunity for a number of these swimmers to qualify for Olympic Trials, and it being so close to where we live, we are going to cancel practice this Thursday evening.  In lieu of practice, we hope to have as many of our LAC swimmers at the Finals session for the Thursday events.   Finals Wednesday through Saturday will start at 5pm.  
  2. Dryland days for Gold / Platinum groups are below for December: (There is dryalnd today for Gold/Platinum)
    1. Tuesday, December 5th
    2. Wednesday, December 13 & Thursday, December 14th
    3. Wednesday, December 20 & Thursday, December 21st. 
    4. We will start Dryland back up in January and I will get those dates to you as soon as I have them. 
  3. We will have some alteratioins to next weeks practice schedule with the swim meet in Christiansburg starting on Thursday next week.  As soon as I have those details nailed down, I will get that information out to all of you. 
  4. Save the Date: LAC Holiday Bowling Party - Tuesday December 19 from 5 - 8pm at Liberty's Montview Bowling Alley.  Cost per swimmer will not exceed $15.  We will plan on having a potluck as well.
