Schedule for the week of October 22nd
This week the girls will start to get out earlier as those who have not made state yet will be begin to "taper" for conference. They will find out tomorrow what this wonderful word means! They will start to get out of practice earlier as taper goes on and begin to have more energy. Make sure to eat healthy and get a lot of sleep, as this is the most important time of the season for your body to get more rest.
Monday: Practice 6-8 (state girls until 8:15)
Tuesday: Meet against Jenison and Senior night. The girls need to be at the pool by 5. We will start announcing the seniors shortly after 6:20 as the Jenison team has a concert that night, so we want to be respectful of getting them out on time!

Saturday practice and updates
Parents,
I told the girls tonight that Calvin's pool and locker rooms close by no later than noon on Saturday due to events on campus. Practice will now be from 10-11:30. I know many girls have the PSAT. I will post a practice on Saturday morning for the girls to do sometime over the weekend. I know EGR has open swim as well as many other places (like the Forest Hills Aquatic Center).
The sleep over is tomorrow night at the Heys house. Please remember to bring sleeping items such as an air mattress, blankets, pillows, etc.

Team concessions and fundraising
The swim team has a great fundraising opportunity! We can "man" the concessions booth at a play off game and earn $400 or more- just in time for Conference items! Our scheduled date is Saturday, October 27. Currently we think the game will start at 1:00 with workers needed between 12:15 and 12:30. We should be done around 2:30 or 3:00.This will be the first game of the post season for our Eagles. Football concessions are a great way to meet other parents and the time just flies! We need 20 volunteers, and the swimmers may help! (We chose this date because it is the only option that does not conflict with practice or Conference meet.) Please email Jennifer Schroder at jennschroder@gmail.com to volunteer your time or sign up on the website. Stay warm, have fun, and support the swim team!

End of Season Banquet
Parents,
I know the end of season is still many weeks away, but we need to set up time with the school as to when we are hosting the end of season banquet. I am looking at that first week after the state meet either Monday or Tuesday around 6:30 (November 19 or 20). If you can email me by Sunday at 5:00pm to let me know if one of those times DOES NOT work. We will go with the date that the most families can make it to!

Camera Training
Attention parents!
Anyone who is interested in learning how to use the underwater camera to help video tape the team, please come to practice on Wednesday (10/3) at 5:45. Once trained you could help occasionally by taping swimmers. This is a great training tool for the team, but requires some extra time to set up and use. If a few could stay after training to tape tomorrow as well that would be great!
Thank you for your help and go EAGLES!
