Dive Team Update - Friday, May 31
May 31st
Happy Friday, Dive Families!
It's a beautiful day for dive practice. Hope to see you at the well.
Here are some updates that you need to know for the coming weeks:
- PRACTICE NEXT WEEK - We have a regular week of practice. Mon-Fri 5:15 and 6:15 pm. If your diver has not picked up their team shirt, they can find us during practice.
- MONDAY FUNDAY - Please sign up to bring popsicles (40-50) for Monday Fundays. Login to rockcreekdive.swimtopia.com
. The divers and coaches have put a moratorium on GoodPop No Sugar Added Popsicles after getting them week after week last summer. - DIVE CONCESSIONS - Speaking of summer treats, the Dive Team will be running a concessions table to raise extra funds for the team. Divers and their parents can volunteer on Tuessdays and Saturdays to run the table throughout June/July. We'll even be selling a pre-paid punch card. We'll send more information soon!
- DROP DIVE DEADLINE - The deadline to drop dive team and get a refund is Thursday, June 15. Please let us know by Thursday night if your child no longer wishes to participate and we will issue a refund for the $135 registration fee.
