DUNE Rumble in The Region, Chesterton High School, Dec. 15th
Tonight, Sunday, November 11th, is the deadline to commit to the DUNE Rumble in the Region Invite.  This meet is being held Saturday December 15th at Chesterton High School.

I realize this meets is still more then a month away and you might not know your family's plans.  Meet directors typically allow us to make modifications a couple of weeks prior to the meet, including removing swimmers from the entry.  So, if there is a possibility for this meet please commit your swimmer.

Group 2 Night at RHS
Every year we ask our Group 2 swimmers to help time at a dual meet.  This year the meet is on Thursday November 29th and is against Clay High School.  The club will provide pizza for all the swimmers that attend.  The start time is still up in the air and I will communicate that to everyone as soon as it is confirmed.

Advertising Credit 
A Group 2 or Group 3 annual membership plus all the other associated fees with our membership -- spirit wear, meet surcharges, technology fees, concession stand/hospitality fees, USA Swimming-- is approximately $550 for an entire year. (A Group 1 annual membership is about $100 less.)  If you were able to sell two of the Premiere+ adds it could easily pay for a whole year of swimming including meet entry fees!

Selling a one year ad to one company 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.

Fall and Winter Meet Schedule/Dates of Meet/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. Meets marked with an * are meets that require swimmers to meet certain time standards.  All pool locations can be found on our website under the "Pools" tab
