Swim Team - Weather Communication
Good evening everyone,
Showers and scattered thunderstorms are at 50% chance all tomorrow morning, our 1st day of practice. The default is to always show up for meets or practice unless you hear from me.
If at all possible, we will always opt to wait it out as summer storms often pass by quickly. You can find practice and meet updates/cancellations in three ways:
- Email - I'll send an email ahead of time. I know this may be a driving/scheduling burden for some families, but I'll email approximately one hour before the start of a practice or meet.
- Swimtopia Mobile App - I highly recommend downloading from the app store available on most mobile phones. Login with your regular swim team website username/password. Alerts, updates, team schedule, swimmer times, swimmer events for a current meet, and results of past meets, can all be found on the app.
- Team Website - Will be posted under "Recent News" on the right column of the website.
So, in the event we need to cancel all or part of practice or evaluations tomorrow (Monday, June 14), I'll let you know through the three ways above. If you do not get a notice, then we are still a go. :)
In general, in the event of rain & chilly temperatures, we still practice outdoors. The coaches' judgement will preside, but don't worry, we're not crazy. If it's too cold we will do dry land (limited swimming), if it is chilly and raining, we may have swimming videos and goal setting sessions prepared under the pool pavilion. If it's warm and raining, we're still in the pool (only the coaches suffer then).
Please pass this info along to anyone you know may be waiting to register until after evals, as they will not be on our email list.
See you on deck,
Coach Drake
