New 2 You

Parents!

A note from Kim VanHarn in regards to our New 2 you fundraiser is below.

We are still in need of a few volunteers for the New 2 You share program. We are doing Fridays in October from 4pm - 7pm. We need one person still for October 5th, two people for October 19th, and one male for October 26. This is a great fundraising opportunity for our team which would help us be able to do some nice things for the girls and coaches for the end of season. If you can take one of these shifts, please email me (Kim VanHarn) at vanharn5@sbcglobal.net.

Thanks,
Kim!

  • Also attached is a letter containing instructions for booking a hotel room for the state swim meet which is being held at Eastern Michigan University this year. Some parents have reserved a block of rooms for parents and families at the Hampton Inn in Canton (thank you to Mark Swets!) There is a home U of M football game that weekend so Ypsilanti is booked solid. You will get a better rate if you use the attached instructions than the regular rate (code GRC). I would recommend that if anyone thinks there is a chance they might go to state reserve a room now. You don't have to pay up front and you can cancel up to 72 hours before with no cancellation fee. This block of room is being held until 10/31/12. Please feel free to ask any of the coaches or captains parents with any questions.
