    Gator Update Week of 6/29

    June 28th

    Hello Gator Fam!

    Two meets down, four to go! Results will be posted as soon as I figure out how. I promise I’m working on it. :)

    Don’t forget to RSVP for Tuesday’s meet at Sunny Willow. If you do not have an RSVP in Swim Topia, your swimmer/diver will not be able to swim/dive at the meet, even if they show up.  Each swimmer/diver is expected to RSVP as attending or not attending for each meet at the very latest 2 days before the meet. Even if you can’t make it, you must let us know via SwimTopia! We are still missing a few RSVPs. Please get them in by 12 noon tomorrow. 

    We need your athlete’s shirt size for team gifts. Please fill out this form ASAP: https://forms.gle/AVoZ37e5vJ6oYxvj9
