Friday: Swim Blast Set up
We will need help on Friday night at the end of the night to set up benches, rope off team areas, and otherwise ensure that everything is ready to go for a smooth start on Saturday morning.
Saturday: Swim Blast
Swim Blast is happening this Saturday morning at HOME! We are hoping to have the biggest team representation this year since we’re showing off our amazing club. Please do what you can to be there!! Swim Blast is a great opportunity to get a time (counts toward your 3 meet minimum to be eligible for A Champs), fill a Volunteer slot (counts toward your season total), have fun, and more. There will be Heat Winner ribbons to celebrate the first in each heat as well as hot heat prizes. There will be music and lots of FUN, plus swimmers can choose what they would like to swim (up to 3 events). Check out the attached flyer for details!

Looking ahead and collecting important info and links:
- We need donations for our concession stand for during meets. We would love to have most of these items available for Swim Blast this coming weekend. Please sign up and you can bring any of these to any practice or event though the week. https://www.signupgenius.com/go/70A0C44A5AD2AA5FE3-64522388-umsc
- Swimsuits: We realized that some of the jammers were unavailable. We are working on fixing that. Suits can be ordered through this link: https://www.swimoutlet.com/collections/umsc
- If you don’t want to wait, here are two links to alternative navy jammers: From Swim Outlet or from Amazon
Thank you for reading these excessively long emails, I promise to send shorter ones in the future! Let me know if there’s anything at all you need!!
Chomp, chomp!
Katie
