The Fast Swimathon is this Sunday, October 16th.. We have lots of great prizes that should encourage our swimmers to raise lots of money.The swim a thon will take place at the Sir Max Aiken Pool on Sunday from 3pm until 5 pm. We ask that swimmers be on deck at 2:30pm for our long course awards ceremony. We need parent volunteers to help count the laps and serve the snacks. If your child is swimming, we ask that one parent come to count his or her laps. 200 laps is hard to keep track of, especially for our younger swimmers.
We wanted to remind our returning swimmers and explain to our new swimmers how to bring in your forms and money. You have already paid your first $60 as part of your registration money. We ask that you calculate your swimmers total moneys raised, subtract the $60 you already paid and write one cheque for the difference. For example, let's say Alex raised $165, I subtract my $60 paid at registration and write my cheque for $105 to FAST. No cash please,,,,This is usually confusing, so if you still have questions please email me your concerns. Please remember to fill out the affidavit and include it, your pledge sheets and your money.
As usual, we ask that parents assist us by providing snacks. We ask that the Novice groups all bring fruit or cheese crackers. The Age Groups to bring cookies or muffins, and the senior groups to please bring juice boxes or water.
If you need more forms, please see Marta.
Thanks,
Heather
