Team Spirit
Caravan to Away Meets
During the course of the
season we will caravan to away swim meets. We will meet at the SM East Parking lot on the south
side, closest to PV Pool.
Plan to arrive by 4:30 pm and
decorate your vehicles. Then make
lots of noise, honking your horns on the way to the meet.
Meet Themes
Themes will be developed each
week including the city championship.
The coaching staff has some great ideas and promises to be fun for
all. Theme titles will be
announced and put into each family’s mailbox. This is a great way to show your team spirit and get excited
for the meets.
Pizza Parties
After each competitive meet,
the team goes out together to have pizza.
This is a great way to get to know other families and for your children
to enjoy their summer experiences.
Though not mandatory, we encourage all team members to join us to
promote team unity and camaraderie.
Our pizza hangout for the
last few years has been at the Pizza Shoppe on 95th. They charge a flat rate for a pizza
buffet and drinks. Pizza Shoppe does a great job to accommodate us for our late
hours.
Oceans of Fun Trip
Annually we go to Oceans of
Fun in place of a practice. This
is a great time for all team members to just have fun and relax. Look for more information in your
mailboxes.
Team Picnic and Swim
Party
At the end of the season we
have an awards picnic and swim party.
Come enjoy the fun!
Swim Buddies:
Unless you would prefer not to participate, we will pair your swimmer with a swim buddy.
Swim buddies are generally an older and a younger swimmer.
They encourage each other by bringing a homemade card, friendship bracelet,
lucky rock or seashell, or similar trinket to the swim meets for their buddy.
The hope is that they make a new friend from a different age
group. We discourage any purchased items, particularly candy or sweet drinks.
