Hello Rapids Families! We have a few quick reminders and updates for the upcoming week:

1. Practice on Mon, July 4: 8:00-9:00 OR 9:00-10:00. 
2. Deadline is Tues, July 5th at 8:00 PM for meet entries for Saturday's meet at Zena. Please signup on time, as we have a very tight turnaround to get the meet file to the host team, and cannot accept late entries.
3. TEAM PICTURE on Friday, July 8th at 9:00 AM!! Swimmers in the 2nd practice should arrive by 9:00. 1st session swimmers will dry off and get ready at 9:00. Please wear Rapids gear, if you have it!!
4. First Team Breakfast on Friday! Breakfast will be served at 9:30, following the team photo, for 1st session swimmers, and between 10:30-11:00 for 2nd session swimmers. 
5. We WILL have Team Caps for Sale on Monday and Tuesday at practice, and at the meet on Wednesday. We also have a few extra shirts for sale. We have one youth medium long-sleeved performance shirt. We also have a few adult tees, tanks and long-sleeved shirts in adult small and medium. Cash and carry. We also have a few donated swimsuits in good condition - please see a board member if you are in need!

A few items to note about meets:

• Athletes are able to select the events they prefer, but coaches may need to make adjustments based on ability and team need to ensure all events are covered!
• When arriving at meets, swimmers should be checking in with coaches and volunteers checking in with Tracy Steeves. 
• Coach Natalia will be speaking with the swimmers about checking in with the coaches after they swim each event. We will make sure the coaches have a designated tent for swimmers to locate their coaches for feedback after they swim. 
• Swim times can be viewed on the app after the events are entered by the host team, and the final times are available once the results are imported. The teams are still reviewing the timer sheets, and final times will be imported tomorrow. 
• If parents have questions or concerns during a practice or meet, please see a board member. 

Looking forward to another great week!
