Hey Dolphins!

First things first: CONGRATULATIONS on our first A-Meet victory of the season! We took down the Woodley Warriors 221 to 187. We may be a small team, but we are officially mighty. Let’s carry that incredible energy into a packed week ahead!

Here is everything you need to know for the upcoming week:

📅 The Week Ahead At-A-Glance

• Monday, June 22 (Morning): Morning Practices Begin + Pancake Breakfast! 🥞
  • Note: Please check your designated timeslot at rollingvalley.swimtopia.com/practice-assignments. If your assignment looks incorrect, please reach out to me directly. We will be wrapping up Monday's practices with a pancake breakfast to celebrate our big win!
• Monday, June 22 (Evening): B-Meet @ Fox Hunt 🏊
  • I am personally so excited for this one. B-Meets are the perfect, low-pressure opportunity to get legal on new strokes, improve your ladder position, or try out the Individual Medley (IM).
• Tuesday, June 23: First Afternoon Practice + Important Deadlines 🚨
  • RSVPs Open: Tuesday marks our first afternoon practice. I have added weekly RSVPs on SwimTopia. If you intend to use our Tuesday or Thursday afternoon practices, please RSVP so we can ensure proper coach coverage.
  • A-Meet Deadline: Tuesday at 5:00 PM is the hard deadline to declare your swimmers for next Saturday’s A-Meet.
• Wednesday, June 24: The White Elephant Cap Exchange! 🐘🧢
  • This is easily one of the most anticipated events of the season. Every swimmer who brings a swim cap to gift will get to play along and take a fun, new cap home!
• Friday, June 26: Pep Rally & Chalk the Walk 🎨
  • Let's get hyped for our next meet! Come ready to cover the entrance in team spirit—we'll be chalking the walk all the way from the street and parking lot straight to the guard shack.
• Saturday, June 27: Home A-Meet vs. Fox Mill Woods 🏡🏆
  • Our very first home meet of the season!
  • Timeline: Rolling Valley Dolphins need to be in the pool by 8:00 AM sharp.
  • Volunteers: Our marshals will need to be on deck before our swimmers get in the water.
  • Keep an eye out for a follow-up email on Thursday with meet sheets and final details.

Quick Checklist for Parents:

1. Check your Monday morning practice slot.
2. Declare your swimmer for Saturday's A-Meet by Tuesday at 5 PM.
3. RSVP for Tuesday and Thursday afternoon practice if you plan to attend.
4. Find a fun swim cap for Wednesday's exchange!

Let's keep this winning streak going, Dolphins! See you at the pool for pancakes and practices tomorrow morning.

Go Dolphins! 🐬
