HW Dolphins: May 19 Updates
Meet RSVPs
Thank you to everyone for signing up for your volunteer shifts! We have a lot of our positions filled and only a few families yet to sign up. Now, please make sure to RSVP your swimmers for next week’s meet. The deadline to RSVP is this Friday at 8 a.m. If you do not RSVP “yes”, the coaches will not enter them to swim. Our coaches spend many hours – beginning on Friday – preparing for the meet, and knowing who will be attending is the first step.
To RSVP, log into your SwimTopia account, navigate to the Calendar page and specific event – select the green “Meet Entry” box. If you know your swimmer’s schedule for the season, you can go ahead and RSVP for all our meets.
Practice Reminders
We love the community of parents and kids socializing during practice – it’s one of the best parts of the season! But as you depart the pool for the day, please take a few minutes to make sure you’ve cleaned up all your trash, and remind your kids to do so too. If you are the last to leave your table, please close the umbrella and tuck the chairs into the table.
Last week our coaches and volunteer leadership team spent several evenings after practice picking up food wrappers and other trash, cleaning up squished food on the concrete, closing umbrellas and putting all the furniture back where it belongs.

Swimsuit Exchange Table
We had several more items added at the end of last week, so we’ll keep the table out for two more days. So remember, if you want to clear out your closets for the summer, bring any hand-me-down items today! Thank you to everyone who contributed. (It’s fun to see my girls' swimsuits on younger kids at practice!)
