Marlins Week Ahead: June 15-June 21
Good afternoon, Marlins-
What an exciting week we had for our Marlins swimmers! Our Regulation swimmers earned a big victory over River Run, fueled by outstanding teamwork, determination, and an impressive number of personal best times. It was wonderful to see our swimmers supporting one another, stepping up in every event, and showcasing the hard work they've put in throughout the season
Saturday morning also brought a fantastic meet for our Speedy swimmers. Their enthusiasm, effort, and growing confidence in the water were on full display, making for a fun and successful morning of racing.
Congratulations to all of our swimmers, coaches, and families for helping make these meets such a success. We are proud of the sportsmanship, dedication, and team spirit that continue to define the Marlins program.
Now, let's take a look at the week ahead and all the opportunities our swimmers will have to continue building on this momentum. Be sure to review the upcoming schedule, practice updates, and meet information below.
Regulation and Speedy Swimmers: Please take a moment to review the upcoming schedule and declare your availability for swim meets as soon as possible. Early declarations are a tremendous help to our coaches as they plan lineups and prepare for each meet.
Swim-a-Thon is happening now! We’re excited about this and the opportunity it brings for fun, community, and support for our Marlins team. From June 15-June 25, Marlins will collect donations from family, friends, neighbors, and/or businesses. Our goal this year is $25 per swimmer and 100% participation. It should be easy to reach this goal….just follow the simple formula: Ask 5 people for $5 each > 5 x $5 = $25
Please visit Swim-A-Thon on our webpage for more information!
