Good Morning, Sea Dragon Parents

Thank you to all of you that patiently attended our suit fitting yesterday. Our increase in team size proved to challenge even the suit outfitters! For those of you that had to order your suit, those will be delivered to the pool as soon as they arrive. If you were unable to attend yesterday, please call or visit the Swim Freak on Thousand Oaks, let them know you are with the SV Sea Dragons, and they will take care of your suit order. 

A few housekeeping items as we get into our second week of practice:

• If you have not provided your swimmer's t-shirt size to me, please do so ASAP. Our order for shirts must go in THIS WEEK to ensure delivery by our first meet. As a reminder, all swimmers will receive a t-shirt and a swim cap prior to our first meet on June 1.
• Each family is required to fill 2 volunteer slots per swimmer. Many parents have not yet signed up. I added some slots today for our 2 home meets so be sure to check out those meets to sign up. If we run out of slots, you can count on helping at our championship meet! We will receive those volunteer assignments once the season gets started. Our volunteer coordinator will be emailing assignment reminders and filling in missing slots with those that have not signed up. 
• PARENT T-SHIRT ORDERS ARE OPEN NOW! If you would like to order extra t-shirts for swimmers, or shirts or tanks (women's only) for parents or family, you can now place your order on the website. These shirts will match swimmer t-shirts, and will be similar to those we had last year.  Visit the SHOP tab at the top of our page and place your order. We will collect orders until Monday at NOON. Extra shirts will NOT be ordered and we will only accept orders online.  
• If you signed up for STROKE and TURN JUDGE (or would like to join the group for an easy volunteer slot), the LAST training will take place this SUNDAY, May 19, from 2-4pm at the Jewish Community Center in San Antonio. Please make arrangements to attend. 

Lastly, we are very excited to announce that we were able to contract more pool time for the month of June! Due to club teams having practice later than us, and CISD child care using the pool in the morning, we were able to add an extra hour to our contract, starting at 3:30. The great news is, all practice groups will be able to practice every day in June! Please be respectful of our coaching staff and adhere to your swimmer's scheduled time during the month of June. It is simply not safe for younger kids to swim with older kids with this new schedule. We cannot honor practice changes during June. The June schedule will run June 3 - June 28, and is attached to this email. We are very excited to be allowed this opportunity!

As always, please let me know if you have any further questions.
