COACHES
We are very excited to announce Jessica Gutwein is returning as head coach. Returning as our assistant coaches are Holly Shertz, Peter Dlugos, and Noah McClung. They are all swimmers on the team and will alternate weeks.
WALLKILL VALLEY SWIM CONFERENCE
Last year, there were 10 Teams. We took 3rd place in the WVSC Championships. Since the WVSC seems to be getting smaller, most likely there will be only one division instead of having a gold and silver. We would like to continue being as competitive as possible, we ask that everyone tries their best to attend ALL swim meets. We understand that several families go away on vacation during the season BUT if you are not please do your best to have your swimmer attend swim meets. If transportation is a problem, please speak to Amy or Molly and they will assist you.
Each year, the WVSC chooses a charity to raise money. Then each team participates in a Swim-A-Long to raise money for that charity. Does anyone have a charity in mind? Also, we are looking for a parent volunteer that will distribute donation forms, collect money, and put together candy prizes for swimmers that raise the most money and swim the most laps in their age groups.
VOLUNTEERS
At swim meets we need Timers, Marshaller, Stroke and Turn Judge, and Finish Judge. Anyone can be a timer or a finish judge. Timers can even be split with another parent if one would like to do the 25s and another would like to do the 50s. Stroke and turn judge needs to have knowledge and experience of the strokes. We have a Referee: (Kevin), a Starter (Joe), Announcer (Audra), Computer (Amy), and Ribbons (Bekki). A Sign Up Genius will be sent out before the first meet.
We have a concession stand at every home meet where we sell hamburgers/hot dogs, buttered noodles, mac n cheese, chicken nuggets, salad, candy, desserts, and other items. A Sign Up Genius will be sent out before each meet. Marybeth is looking to step down from concessions after this year so we are looking for a volunteer to shadow her this year and take over for her next year.
