Parent Night!

Hi Team!

Tonight is our first dual meet!  It's also Parent Night, which is definitely one of my favorite nights of the year!  The meet starts at 5:30, but our divers compete at 4:15.  If you can come early to cheer them on, that would be great!

We will start lining up parents and athletes at 5:20.  There will be parent volunteers there to help get everyone set up alphabetically by grade.  Each girl and her parents will be introduced and will stand together during the Star Spangled Banner.

If you have signed up to time, please meet in the pool lobby at 5:15 for a short timer meeting.

I am beyond excited to see the girls compete and celebrate our fantastic parents tonight!

With AW-K Pride,

Coach Vicki

Thank You, Volunteers!

Hi Team!

I just finished emailing everyone who signed up to help with a team dinner.  There is all kinds of info in the email including the names of the other members of your team.  There are a couple of nights where we could use a few more families to help out with the meal.  Please click on the link on the right side of the page (Volunteer sign ups) to see the meal team lists.

On that same page, I listed everyone who signed up to help with timing at meets.  There are a few spots that are open for timing, as well.  Please let me know if you can help out.   Please plan on being at the pool by 5:15 pm if you are timing.  There will be a short timers meeting before each meet.

I am so excited about watching the girls compete next week!

Last Lambeau!

Hi Team!

We've got one last clean-up party at Lambeau Field this Friday, September 1st, from 4:15-7:30.  We have done a fantastic job getting big groups of volunteers to work at each clean-up.  Let's see if we can set a record at this last one!  The list of volunteers is pretty small so far, but I know you guys will come through for the program.  Remember--each swimmer is required to work at 2 Lambeau clean-ups, and you need to bring a parent with you to at least one of the two.  I have kept volunteer lists for the last three, and between the two teams, there are quite a few of you who still need to come and volunteer.  A bunch of you have worked at all three of this year's Lambeau clean-ups--THANK YOU!!

Here's who I have signed up so far:

September 1^st  4:15-7:30 pm

Vicki Terlap
Peyton Michler
Ben Todd
Becca Sesto
Carrie Olson
Amy Funk
Lexee Funk
Owen Daniels
Mike Daniels
Ava DeGroot
Kyra Woodrow
Sandy Bevers
Chad Bevers
Hailey Bevers

Please text or email me by Thursday if you are able to help out.  Thank you!

Car Wash Fun!

 Hi Team!

Way to go on Saturday!  You guys made $574.00!  I divided it evenly between everyone who worked, and you each made $15.50!  I still need to break a few 20's to finish filling all the envelopes, but I will get that done in the morning.

I'd like to say a big THANK YOU to the guys at Extreme Audio for allowing us to use their parking lot, hose, and water for our car wash.  I'm pretty sure the best part of the whole day was that they played super-loud music for the girls to dance to between car washes.

It was fun to get to hang out with the girls away from the pool.  It was also fun to see so many parents, grandparents, and guy swimmers come through the line.

I hope you all pick out something fun from the team apparel store.  I'll have your envelopes to give you in the morning!

With AW-K Pride,
Coach Vicki

Car Wash Info

Hi Swimmers and Families,

This Saturday, August 19, is our big team car wash!  Every single dollar raised will go back to the girls who work to help defray the cost of their team suits and optional clothing. 

Here are the details:

Location:  Extreme Audio Parking Lot:  211 N. Lynndale Drive, Appleton

Time:  9:00 am -1:00 pm

We have asked the girls to sign up to work a 2-hour shift.  They are more than welcome to stay for the entire 4 hours, but they don't have to. There will be at least one coach there with the girls the entire time.  We are hoping for plenty of sunshine, so please make sure to bring sunscreen and lots of water.  The girls can wear a one-piece swimsuit and shorts. They will most likely get wet.

We have tons of old towels that have been donated to the team, but we could use a few squeegees so we can do windows.  We could also use a couple of more big sponges. Please make sure you put your name on anything you want us to get back to you.  

As always, please let me know if you have any questions or concerns.  We hope to see a big bunch of you over at Extreme Audio with your dirty cars!  

Thank you for your help spreading the word!

With AW-K Pride,

Coach Vicki

PS  RAIN DATE:  September 16th
