Stingrays practice officially begins today!! Here are some things you and your swimmer need to know:

 Practice Times: Practice for all swimmers April 23 - May 31:
4:30-5:00 pm - 6 and under
5:00-5:45 pm - 7/8
5:45-6:30 pm - 9/10
6:30-7:15 pm - 11/12
7:15-8:15 pm - 13-18
 Coach Mark would like for everyone to be at practice a minimum of 2 days per week in order to see progress in their skills. More is definitely better! All swimmers are encouraged to be at practice on Fridays as this is the day the blocks will be set up for starts and relay practices.
 Swimmers need to have their equipment with them and be ready to get in the pool at their allotted practice time.
 Parents and siblings are NOT permitted to sit in the area between the pool and the kiddie pool or immediately behind the swimmers. This area is for the swimmers and coaches only. You may sit on any of the other three sides of the pool.
 Siblings may NOT be in the kiddie pool during practices or meets. Additionally, please supervise your children, and do not allow them to run on deck, climb on equipment or poles, or go unsupervised to the lake area, parking lot, or inside the clubhouse. No bicycles or scooters are allowed on the pool deck.
 Please make sure that your swimmer is coming home with all of their equipment, towels, clothing, etc. We will do our best to collect lost and found but it becomes difficult as more and more things are left behind each day.
 Please join the Remind Stingrays 2019 group! Text @86gha4 to 81010 This is how we will notify parents of practice cancellations due to weather and/or pool issues. We WILL practice if it is raining. We will only cancel practice if there is thunder or lightening.
 We still have a few people who have not paid their $350 volunteer check. Carol Beth emailed those who still need to pay. If you late registered or haven't paid yet, please do that this week! You can give your payments to any board member at any practice.
Swimsuits and spirit merchandise are in (with the exception of the mesh shorts), so please pick it up at any practice this week!

Please let me know if you have any questions. Can't wait to see you on deck this afternoon!! Fingers crossed for great weather!
