Feeding Frenzy!
What a great meet we had! With a very limited number of swimmers, we placed 3rd overall! Aidan Jalili and Kalin Tang led the way by placing 2nd in their age groups overall at the meet.
Congratulations to all swimmers and families for surviving the marathon! If you swam in the Patana meet and did NOT yet receive your free t-shirt come pick it up at the ISB pool. Any shirts not picked up before the break will be donated to charity.
In other news:
We did some truly excellent swimming during the first semester across the board. The incredible improvement I saw from each and every squad was definitely beyond my expectations. Let's stay focused through Spring Semester and get ready to ROCK BISAC!!
PB ribbons, Panther Paw shirts, patches and any unclaimed awards will be handed out at the End of Season Party. Another reason to be sure to come celebrate our successful Fall Semester on Thursday at Milano's/Pro Club at 4:30.!
Registration information for Spring Semester will be available as we get closer to that time. Look for some cool new things next semester including a new more fun website, some new Panther Shack items and some squad optimizations. It's going to be a great semester and I hope you'll all be back to enjoy it with us. For those NOT returning, if you have not already let me know via email, please do soon. Thank you in advance.
For those who are interested in training over Winter Break, please let me know ASAP if you have not already done so. I would like to have plans in place by Thursday of this week so people can plan.
And finally, I hope all of you have a safe and happy winter break wherever you'll be!
Regards,
Andy
