MEETS:
Our next meet is The Penguin Presents Party Dec 17/18 at St. Kate’s in St. Paul. Please check your invites or swim portal for the meet information. The meet closes Dec 5 for entries. Please do the coaches a favor and click :’Not attending" if your swimmer will not attend.

NOTE:
USA Swimming memberships are mandatory for participation in our program. About one third of our current team is in need of renewal by Dec 31. This affects your ability to participate in meets—and practices— and is not always a smooth process to renew. Please watch for emails reminding you to do this, I would like everyone renewed by mid-December so we don’t have trouble with any January meets.
