Coach Tracy
Volunteer Why?
Before walking off into the sunset, I wanted to discuss the importance of contributing to development of the swim club.
This club has for the last 10 years been a very welcome member of my family. 10 years ago on a night just like last night my daughter Emily won the Landry award and as she picked it up I knew then I was going to have to contribute in some way to the club.
That night, then President Gerry Bioute, was asking - no begging families to help out. The club was 30 strong with a volunteer coach. Believe me when I say this I was not comfortable putting my hand up as I really did not know anyone involved with the club, but I knew that I was going to have to do something.
You see I saw something that night. What is it? I saw the beauty of the sport and what it has to offer the kids.
I saw that there was a club that was going to instill hard work and goal setting for the kid, it was inclusive and kids would win over and over again.
As Emily moved through the club, I started to see the time, energy and commitment that Tracy and the other coaches were putting in. I realized that Tracy would be spending more time with my daughter then I was, and that I could not ask for a more wonderful role model and mentor for my daughter (Thank you again Tracy!).
We are very fortunate to have many "Tracies" in our club. I am sure your children have experienced the positive influence of Lori, Dave, Jennifer, Samantha or Terry in many ways.
You see everyone I really never thought of it as the work but as my responsibility to keep this great forum going and support the people that are making such a wonderful impact in our children’s lives.
So I would ask if people are feeling apprehensive or nervous about volunteering please think of the Club and the way it is contributing to your child’s development. If everyone embraces the work….. great things will continue to happen.
The AGM is up coming and two very critical positions are open. President and Vice President.
Tanya will be a very active Past President and a great resource. I will still be assisting with the meet management for one more year. So the time is right for new people to step forward and help keep things going. As Dave Campbell said last night “ We have something special here”
He is right
Thank you
