Good character is not formed in a week or a month.
It is created little by little, day by day. Protracted
and patient effort is needed to develop good character.

Shoes!
It's time for our kiddos to graduate to swimming with shoes.
Please find some inexpensive, lightweight, canvas shoes.
Initially, we'll use them in our warm-up.
Then, we'll gradually incorporate shoe swimming into other sets.

September Short Course Practice Schedule
I'll be at the ASCA World Clinic in Dallas next week. Kids may still get in during lap swim if they'd like.
The plan is to offer as many workouts as possible for the remainder of the month. Since our kids are participating on other sports* in addition to swimming, the hope is that they'll be able to get to at least a few swim practices each week.
Please don't forget lap swim fees for September ($10 to the City of Bay City).
Any newcomers wishing to join the group may try out during the week of September 9th.
Beginning Monday, the 9th, we'll practice on weekdays (5-6:45 p.m.) and Saturday's (9-10:45 a.m.) with the following exceptions:
Wednesday, the 11th, I have meet the teacher at the high school starting at 6:00 p.m. I'll have to leave the pool around 5:30 p.m. I plan to have a written practice for athletes to follow.
Friday, the 13th, we may have traffic issues due to a home football game. We'll finish up that day at 6:30 p.m.
If all goes well, we'll have nearly twenty (20) opportunities for our kids in September.
ShAC is hosting an intrasquad** meet on Saturday, October 5. We should be ready for some good early season swims!
*...and that's a good thing!
**Times will be official
