Hello swim parents!

Thank you for your patience this week, as the Goodwin family has been recovering from a terrible stomach bug. It definitely threw a wrench in my planning on such a big meet week. Also, big thanks to all of you who stepped in the gap and filled in for me where you could. I’m so thankful for this TEAM of parents!

This week’s meet is a HOME meet at Frances Meadows, so it is not such an early morning for leaving as usual. We will plan to meet at the high school at 8 AM with a planned departure time of 8:15 AM. I do expect students to ride the bus to the meet unless they have discussed this with me before and have an extenuating circumstance. This allows me to ensure that we all make it on time and safely and is the preference (requirement) of the school when traveling to a GHSA meet like ours.

Thank you to our parent volunteers for providing a snack table. Also, be sure that you provide a refillable water bottle for your child to help them stay hydrated during the meet.

We will have a team photographer available who will be taking pictures of the team as he is able. Unfortunately, due to being sick, I was unable to coordinate being able to get individual pictures at this time, but this is something that we can work on for the future and for future meets. I apologize for the inconvenience on this one!

We will have team pictures for the middle school on Friday, January 19th, at 8 AM in the gym. Please wear your team shirt, black pants/leggings, and your team sweatshirt for the picture.

High school team pictures with CADY studios are planned for afterschool on January 31st. I will let you know a time as soon as I am able. These are studio-type portraits in the high school gym, and you will have the opportunity to purchase both team and individual portraits if you would like. Students should wear their team shirt, sweatshirt, and black pants/leggings for the photo.

If you have any questions, please let me know!

GO BEARS!

Coach Goodwin
