Banquet details

The banquet is going to be Monday, November 28th at 7:00 pm. We will be in the lower commons and it would be best to park in the teacher and staff parking lot. Plan on eating dinner before you come as we will be doing desserts. If everyone could bring a dessert to pass that would be great!

*If the girls could please bring their swim warm ups to the banquet that would be awesome!

Congrats to a 9th place at state and the banquet date

Congrats to the lady eagles who finished 9th place at the state swim meet! Everyone should be so proud of the hard work they have done this past season, way to go. If you are interested in looking at results click here .

Banquet Details:

We will be having the swim and dive team banquet November 28th (Monday) at the high school. I will find out what time we can get the lower commons at and speak with the captains and their parents about details of the night.

Middle School Meet Success & State Schedule

Thank you for helping with the Middle School meet:

Thank you to all who came out to help work and support the middle school meet. We had a lot of people there and I think this will make a huge impact as some of these kids get ready to make a decision about swimming in high school. We also raised some money from selling concessions to add to the team fund (thank you to everyone for making donations).

Girls who are headed to State:

Monday- 6:00-7:30

Tuesday- 6:00-7:30

Wednesday- 6:00-7:30

Thursday- 2:30-3:30 (we have to practice before Calvin and I will talk with school about being let out at 2:00)

*I will send the girls home tonight with a schedule for the state weekend. We plan on leaving Calvin around 4:30, if parents would like to bring luggage or send a farewell between 4:15-4:30 that would be great!

Go Eagles!

Donations for concessions @ the Middle School Swim Meet

An FYI about concessions donations already. If you wish to help out, please get any concessions items to Megan Schroder either at practice or school by FRIDAY this week. WE can bring it all over at once. If you prefer to offer monetary donations, please give that to Megan by THURSDAY afternoon so that I can run out to get the rest. Thanks so much!

Items for concessions so far:

2 cases plus 2 packs Gatorade
Case of water
Case of Diet Coke
Individual Cheese Its


3 Coolers

Conference T-shirts & Second shave meet

Conference T-shirts:

If you are interested in getting a conference t-shirt print off a sheet here to view the information.

I know we have some interested in getting one. If you can bring money and your size to me tomorrow (to Ottawa Hills High School for the middle school practice or if you are going to state bring it to practice) I will print off the form for you and hand it in!

Second shave meet:

There is a second shave meet that is going to be held at Holland Aquatic Center on Tuesday for those who are looking to get that final cut. The meet is a 5pm warm up and 6pm start. If you are interested in going please email me at alyssa.ludema@gmail.com no later than 5pm tomorrow.

Lady Eagles Fund Raising Opportunity

Great Job at conference to all the swimmers and divers, what a fun meet!

Monday: If you are not going to state please come to Ottawa Hills High School @ 6:00 to meet the middle school swimmers. We are going to teach them cheers and help with turns/starts/ etc.

Lady Eagles Fund Raising Opportunity

Next week Saturday we will be providing concessions for the Middle School swim meet held at Ottawa Hills. We need parent help/support in two ways to make this happen. First, we need some help with selling- this can either be parents or swimmers. Second, donations of concessions or money would be great to give us a little boost- otherwise I will have to take money from the team fund to buy supplies. Below is a SPECIFIC list of items to donate- or I will buy before the meet. Please stick to this list- it is easier for pricing/selling if we have consistent products.

Gatorade- either small or medium- often sold in eight packs. We don't need the huge single bottles- any flavor
Propel Zero- multi-pack size - any flavor
Pop in cans- doesn't really matter what kind, but last year we sold out of Diet Coke
Fruit- apples, bananas, oranges
Individual size snacks- goldfish, ritz bits, granola bars, that sort of thing (Trying to stay away from chips)
Power bars of any kind
Donuts- I think I will just go out and buy these that morning
Juice- in small bottles, not boxes or pouches- apple juice, orange juice, etc

We might do some candy, though I was trying to stay away from that if we can. First of all, because I am trying to have stuff a little more healthy for the kids who are swimming, second, because it is SO HOT in there that chocolate, etc is not always a good fit.

Time frame is probably from about 8:30- 12:00. Perhaps a bit longer on both ends. We could also really use coolers and ice.

Let me know if you have any questions or suggestions! Thanks!
