Good afternoon everyone, 

I'm sure you guys all have a lot of questions about the rest of the season! I'll try to answer a couple here, and if you have anything else please feel free to shoot us an email.

At the moment, Joe and I are planning on co-head coaching the team. We are already involved in most of the practices and meets, so the transition itself should be easy. 

We are actively looking for a new head coach to come in, but should we not find one by the end of the season I am fully confident the season will run as smoothly as it has been already. 

Now on to the routine things! 

• Charlestown is a home meet on Saturday, December 15th! 
• Check-in is at 12:15
• Meet Special Requests 
• Volunteer Sign-ups
• Concession Donations

• We are getting an electronic scoreboard! 
• Thanks to the generous donations from many families on the team (and families who used to be on the team) we have reached our goal of a scoreboard for our pool! 
• The order process takes around 5 weeks, so unfortunately it will not be ready by this season
• If you would still like to donate to help operational costs, and whatever we decide next years goal is (we're open to suggestions) feel free!

• Nationals Meeting
• If you are interested in attending Nationals 2019 this year down in St. Petersburg, Florida we will have an information night on December 21st at 6:15pm

• Liberty Bell Donation
• Thanks to Liberty Bell for sponsoring us again this season! 

• No practice days
• Thursday December 20th
• Monday December 24th - Wednesday January 2nd

• Card-board Canoe Races
• We'll be running a cardboard canoe race instead of practice on January 8th  5:30-7:30pm
• Swimmers/parents will build a canoe out of cardboard and duct tape, and then attempt to race it in the pool. 
• Age groups will compete against each other for a pizza party later in the season!
• More details soon! 

As always, if you have any questions, let us know!
