Storm Families,

It was nice to have the kids get back into racing right after the holiday break at our New Year's Splash meet. They swam well, and Nicki Harkins grabbed her first National cut in the 200 Free, so congratulations to her!!

As the championship season gets underway, it becomes very time-consuming for the coaching staff. There are a lot of hours spent on the pool deck, either coaching practices or meets every other weekend. Please be conscious of this as we navigate communication and balance the needs of the swimmers during this significant time of the season for them.

Thank you,

Coach Mary
