    Parents

    • We understand it is a busy week! We are trying to have everything timed between Wednesday & Thursday but have reserved Friday as a make-up day. Please help us ensure that your swimmer is timed in all events by Friday.
    • We might need assistance with timing during each age group practice and would appreciate your help.
    • New stroke judges: this will be a great opportunity to shadow an experienced judge in a meet-like setting before taking your own shift. Please let Mindy know if you can shadow one or both days. Email [email protected].

    We will send another Marlins Minute this week which will discuss meet preparations (arrival time, marking your swimmer, SwimTopia app, etc.). Our first home meet of the season is just over a week away on Tuesday, May 31st. Yippee!

    Go Marlins,

    Susan Farrell
