WEEK AHEAD: All practices will be held as normal for this week.

FRIDAY: June 27 We will have our team picture taken. Please arrive by 8:50 so that we can get organized. WHAT TO WEAR: THIS YEAR'S TEAM SHIRT, AND EITHER YOUR SUIT OR GREEN OR BLUE SHORTS. NO BRIGHT COLORS. This Friday the pool will be closed all day to repair our slippery floors. Rumor has it that Jeff Williams Banana Peel on the floor while running to escape the Black Tooth Potts. This is why we never Running at the pool. Anyway we need to get this done now so we will be closed and the bathrooms downstairs will not be available. We will be able to use the ones upstairs and on the patio. You may bring your White Water Rafting on Friday as we will let you play in the other pool after the team picture until 10:30. We will have Doughnut Doughnut and juice for you after the picture.

SATURDAY JUNE28: We have a date with Overlee Fish down Lee Highway. We will all wear our new Team Shirt this week (No exceptions, No excuses). Also look find or make a Green bandanna for your head. Use your imagination, old sheets, old t-shirt, we don,t need to spend money. Yes this is Overlee, but this is just another team and we are going to think of it as a fish fry Fishing

SUNDAY: JUNE 29 We will have our Dolphin meet that was rained out last Monday. Warm-ups are at 9:30am and we want to start near 10. We will do IM's first so that you can get out of there.

Hamlet Meet Wrap-up: OK so we lost! Yes it hurts some because as athletes WE are all competitive and want to win, but it won't always happen. Did you know that even though Babe Ruth was the home run king, he was also the Baseball 5 out king! As an athlete your always going to get knocked down, but the true champion will pick themselves up and Swimmer another day. When you give up, quit and don' care that is when you really become a loser! As coaches we are so proud of each and every one of our Dolphin Dolphin 's who swam with a lot of Beating Heart and determination.
