MARCH 20

 Live To Swim WEEKLY UP DATE:  All practices are normal this week except for Saturday.  Due to the meet we will not hold practices.
 
 Blast Off SPRING BLAST MEET:  Don't forget that this is a trials and finals meet for 11 and overs.  The top 16 will come back to swim at night.  You must either scratch before leaving in the morning, or show up at night.  If you fail to show up you will be scratched from your next event.  If you need to scratch let me know and I will take care of it, or I expect you in the evening.

WEEKLY TOPIC "THE SWIMMING HOLE"  Visit My Mail Stamp!  
This weekend we will gather at the old swimming hole at George Mason for a get-together to see who can go up and down the fastest.  That's all it is, all any swimming meet is, a bunch of people getting together to see who can go up and down the pool the fastest.  Not scary stuff, No Worries.FUN STUFF!!
 
It's fun to race.  What's the first thing you did when you got into the water with a friend years ago?  "Hey, I"ll race you to the ladder!"  Shaking Hands  And you want a challenge.  So, if your friend isn't a competitive swimmer of your ability, you say, "I'll give you a headstart!" or You swim free, I'll swim fly."
 
This meet can be the most fun!  It is our championship meet!  It's when all your hard work will pay off and you WILL rise to the top!  The swimmers who can give you the best races will all be gathered there at the same time to see who can go up and down the pool the fastest.  THAT'S EXCITING!
                                                           GOOD LUCK  MIKE
