Welcome Back for another Super Swim Season!

Hello Dolphin Swimmers and Families!

I behalf of the coaches...welcome back Dolphin swimmers and families! We would also like to extend a warm welcome to all of the new swimmers and their families...welcome to our Club! We have lots of new faces this year....17 new swimmers to date! We also have two new coaches that we would like to welcome to our coaching staff, Jennifer Power-Hawrylak and J Hammer. Jennifer will be coaching our little guys and gals in the Tier 1 group and J will be assisting Ann with the Tier 2 group. So welcome everyone for another season with the Summerside Dolphin Swim Club.

As you know, the first day of practice was yesterday. It was so nice to see all the smiling faces back on the pool deck. Parents, please check the schedule to see when your swimmer(s) have practice. Just a reminder to those swimmers that have early morning practice...there will be NO morning practice for the first two weeks. The first early morning practice will be Tuesday, October 07, 2008 (Regional Group), a few more Saturday morning sleep-ins for you!

Parents, please make sure your swimmer(s) comes to practice with the appropriate training attire. For swim practice your swimmer will need: a bathing suit, a bathing cap (for those with long hair), goggles and sandals. Those swimmers that are in the Tier 4/Regional Group, they will need to bring gym clothes and running sneakers.

I am sure many of you have lots of questions about our Club, practice, swim meets, etc. We will try to address all our questions at the Parents Info/Social Night on October 15, 2008 but in the meantime, please do not hesitate to contact either myself or any of the coaches. We want your experience with the Dolphin Swim Club to be a positive one!

Looking forward to sharing another great season with all of you! Go Dolphins!
