Billing Error
Last
week I mistakenly manually added the concession stand/hospitality fee
to all active accounts. I forgotten that in the fall I had set it up as
an automatic charge. I have gone back in and all the accounts double
charged were given a $10 credit. I apologize for the error and if you
concerns about this please let me know.

Lifeguard Class at Riley and Clay High School

included on the flyer.
New Prairie Group 2/NPMS Swimming
A
reminder that due to middle school practice starting we will no longer
be holding Group 2 practices at NPHS. If there are swimmers that would
like to continue practicing with the club they are more then welcome to
attend Riley practices. If your swimmer plan's on attending those
practices your account will be charged for the whole month. Middle
school swimmers, just like high school swimmers, are still members of
the club during their school season. Any time done at a sanctioned
middle school meet (also for high school meets) can be used to qualify
for Divisionals, Age Group/Senior State, and Speedo Sectionals.
New USA Swimming Guidelines-MAAPP
USA Swimming issued a directive with regards to electronic communication and social media contact between coaches and athletes. Most of what is being implemented is common sense and falls in line with our club's policies. One new requirement we will need to adhere to is how your minor child communicates with me. For several years I have asked swimmers in Group 2 and Group 3 to text/email me if they would be missing practice. Moving forward, swimmers will be instructed to include a parent on all communication with me.

If you are the parent of a Group 2 or Group 3 swimmer, and have never sent me a text before, please text me so I have your contact info in my phone. This way if I need to contact your swimmer about missing practice I can be sure to include you. My cell phone number is 574-276-6057.
I encourage all parents and swimmers to read the full policy. We are required to keep this policy on our website, here is the link.
