A Message from our Teasurer re:Cheques

Several of you have inquired lately as to the status of your cheques for meets, citrus and clothing orders, fees, etc.

 

Please note that all cheques are deposited on the 1^st of the month.  If cheques are not received by me before this date, they are then deposited at the earliest possible date which may be the 1^st of the following month.   The deposit for January 1^st will include all cheques made payable to FAST and will be deposited January 1^st.

 

I also would like to take this opportunity to advise that it is our policy to charge NSF fees of $25 per returned item.  If for whatever reason you would like me to hold your cheque(s), please be sure to notify me.  I would rather see a cheque held back for a week or two, rather than returned by the bank.

Christmas Party Reminder

Hello Fast Families,

Just another reminder about the Christmas Party on Saturday.  For anyone who has not
replied yet; I am going to put in a special request.  We are in need of juice and main
dishes.  So, if any Fishes and/or Fishes Advance are planning to attend and have not
yet replied, it would be nice if you could bring juice of juice boxes.  For anyone AG1,
AG2 and National, the main dish does not have to be a "breakfast casserole" as such.  It
can be any dish you would like to bring.

Christmas Party

Hello FAST Families,

Just a reminder to the upcoming Christmas Breakfast.  I have had replies from many
families, but would love to hear from everyone. 

We have booked the Willie O'Ree Community Room for Saturday morning December 20,
from 9:00am 'til noon.  We have decided on a pot luck breakfast/brunch with each group
bringing one part of the meal (see below).  The cost will be $5.00 for a parent and
one swimmer or $10.00 for three or more.  This will pay for the room rental and all
money left will go to a charity, such as the Food Bank or Soup Kitchen, perhaps for the
purchase of turkeys and other Christmas items.  We are open to any suggestions.

Each swimmer is asked to bring the following to contribute to the meal:

Fishes - juice/juice boxes and granola bars
Fishes Advance - yogurt and cream cheese
Novice 2 and Teen Fitness- bagels and muffins
Novice 1 - croissants and sweet breads
AG3 - fruit/fruit trays
AG2,AG1 and National - Breakfast casseroles

This will definitely be a fun party for everyone and a great team building event.

Please let me know if you are coming and what you will bring.  That
way we won't have too much of one thing and not enough of another. I can be reached at
459-1974 or email emartin@unb.ca.

Thank you in advance for making this a great party and I look forward to hearing from
everyone.

Grace Martin

Fishes and Fishes Advance

Hi   Just a quick note to remind the FAST fish families that tonight is the last scheduled practice. Most of you have re-registered at this point. There are a few spots left in each of the fishes and fishes advanced if your child is still interested and you missed registration.   I also have some names on my list that indicated they were coming back but I have not received payment yet.   After tonight we will open up registration to new swimmers. To re-register you will not need to fill out more forms or complete the online registration as this is already done. Just send me an email and leave payment with your coach or Marta (head coach).   Michelle
