The upcoming week will be a busy one for the swim team. You can always check out the team calendar for upcoming events.

Wednesday, July 13: We’re back at Cheverly for a B meet. Cheverly is still putting the finishing touches on the program. Once they provide it, we’ll open registration on Active. Without knowing the details, I can say that swimmers who have placed highly in a given PMSL event cannot swim the event at the meet. (However they could swim in a higher age group.) There will also be events for developmentals.

Thursday, July 14: Swim-a-thon from 8-10 pm at GAFC. An information sheet and a pledge sheet have been handed out at practice.

Saturday, July 16: Our final PMSL meet at Fort Washington. Registration is already open via the Active Swim Portal.

Sunday, July 17: Knights of Columbus Mini-Meet. This is only open for swimmers 10 and under, including developmentals. Swimmers only swim against those of the same age. Sign-up on Active Swim Portal will go up in a day
or two.

For this event I would love to see max participation showing off our Greenbelt green colors! Bring your green hats, green shoes, green bathing suits, green water bottles. Anything green, green, green. I can’t wait to see all of our team spirit out there this weekend!

See you there!
