Hello Franklin Fish Families,

Crazy weather we are having!  At least things should green up after we get through this.

Practice 5/19

Practice will be at Buck Rec Center from 5-7PM, for the whole swim team.  The SSPRD coordinators have secured 2 classrooms for tonight with a plan of doing some team building and "dry land" practice.  Dry land basically means doing exercises outside of the pool that benefit swimming.  The silver lining of the weather is that it allows for some team building away from the pool and our swimmers will get to know their coaches better.  This is also an opportunity for our older swimmers to show what great role models they can be for our younger swimmers.  If you cannot leave your kid(s) from 5-7pm, we understand but please communicate with the coaches if you will pick your kiddo up early.  

Practice 5/20 and 5/21

Plan A: Practice as usual at the Ben Franklin Pool.

Plan B: If the weather prevents outdoor practice, we will split the team by age groups and hold practice at Buck Rec Center.  IF this happens, 8 and under will practice Wednesday at Buck from 5-6PM and 10 and up will practice at Buck on Thursday from 5-6PM.  We only have three lanes available at Buck which is why we will have to split the team.  

Looking ahead at the weather, we are hoping we can host normal practice times and age groups on Friday.

Big Thanks to the SSPRD coordinators (Ann Harston, Marisa Colbert, Lydia Vankooten) that are helping to figure out meaningful activities we can do during this crazy weather!

Thanks,

Gill T. and Lissa
