Attached is the lineup for this Saturday's district meet at West Mesa. All athletes need to be to West Mesa Pool by 6:30 AM, we start our warm up at 7:00.
This will be a long meet so plan on being there until about 2:00 in the afternoon. We will be seating on the north side bleachers for this meet.
State entries are due this Sunday at midnight, I will be talking to those of you who have qualified in more than one event to see what you would like to swim. I will do my best to put you in those events, but my final decision will be based on what is best for the team. We are only allowed four swimmers per event at State, my goal is to have as many events with four entered as possible.
Thank you
Coach Vince

2. Decorations must be signs, sidewalk chalk, shoe polish for car windows and streamers only. No toilet paper, etc. Everything must be done in good taste and be first class.
3. Costumes must also be in good taste and first class. If you are wearing shorts, they must be an appropriate length and what you are wearing under a white tank top must be decent. The final say with any clothing decision rests with me. You are not allowed to body paint, decorate cars etc. at West Mesa.

Cancellation. I am sorry for the late notice, but with the Boy's soccer team playing today at 4:30, I am giving our athletes the chance to go out and support them. I will be cancelling practice so you can attend the boys state soccer game. It is not mandatory to attend the soccer game.
