SWAC Pre-lim/Final Invite November 17th-19th HPB Natatorium Ft. Wayne
The deadline for committing to the meet is tonight, Sunday October 22nd.  The format for this meet is the same as our championships meets at the end of the season.  This could be a great learning experience for all of our athletes. If there are high school girls that are interested in attending they will need to contact their school's athletic director to obtain a waiver.

Swim-A-Thon
I can not express my gratitude enough for the last week we have had.  In the time between the weekly emails we have raised over $8400!! An unbelievable week.  We had 47 swimmers donate at least $100.  We also had 7 swimmers that were able to collect $500 or more.  A total of 73 of our swimmers contributed to this year's Swim-A-Thon. Thank you to all the families and swimmers who helped us achieve our goal.  Thanks again to all the parents who came down and deck and helped count our swimmer's laps.
 
Golden Goggles
The Golden Goggles is USA Swimming's annual awards ceremony for their athletes and coaches.  It also serves as their fundraiser for the USA Swimming  Foundation.  Each year they recognize several outstanding performances.  This year one of our very own has been nominated for an award.  Bethany Galat, a senior at Texas A&M and former SBSC member, has been nominated for the "Breakout Performer of the Year".  You can click here to read Bethany's short bio and to cast your vote for her.

Team T-shirts
Team shirts were handed out to all the swimmers (and parents if they ordered) that were in attendance at the Swim-A-Thon.  We will hand out shirts to the other swimmers this week at practice.  Parents if you ordered shirts please wait until practice has ended before coming into the office to pick up yours.  We do have team suits that were ordered from Just Add H20 and will be handing those out as well.  The shirts for the NP swimmers and families will be delivered to NP one day this week

Advertising Credit 
Selling a one year ad on our website could earn you anywhere from $50 to almost $500. Here is the link for more information. 

Another easy way to earn credit for your swim club account is to hang our recruiting posters out in the public. For every poster you hang you will receive a $5 credit up to $25. Once you hang the poster post a pic of it on your Facebook page (or other social site) and tag the club. 



Upcoming Meet & Dates/location/Deadline to commit
Below is our fall/winter meet schedule.  Swimmers wanting to compete will need to commit to those meets.  The deadlines are based on deadlines that were set last year. They may change once the meet hosts posts the meet information.  When committing to multiple day meets please leave a message in the available notes section of what days you would like to attend.
