Hilliker YMCA Swim Team – Parent Booster Meeting Buckeye Hilliker Swim Boosters Meeting Welcome – President Jodi Deardurff welcomed parents and thanked them for coming to the meeting. She also thanked the families for the numerous gifts donated to the family adopted by the swim team. Coaches’ Bonus – We were fortunate to have Booster monies available to provide a small Christmas bonus to each of the coaches. We appreciate their hard work and want them to know this. Upcoming Meet – We have a home meet this Saturday, December 22nd. Please be at the Y at 9:45am for 10:00am warm-ups. We will have a 50/50 drawing and a concession. Please check the list on the bulletin board to make sure your family has signed up to donate a couple of concession items and to work the event. We need 6 additional timers because we will not be using the touch pads. Please ask your swimmers not to disrupt the water exercise class that is in the pool just prior to our meet. They should finish up at 9:30am. Practice – Coach Russ continues to ask that swimmers come to as many practices as possible. He would like each swimmer to attend at least 3 or 4 practices per week. We appreciate those who drive some distance and still make it in on a regular basis. Attached you will find the Christmas Training Camp practice times. Private lessons – Coach Russ will be offering private stroke, turn and starts Clinics at the Y. The schedule for these private lessons is also attached. Each session will last 45 minutes and will include a maximum of 2 children, at a cost of $30.00 per swimmer. Private lessons will allow detail work on swimming techniques, which is difficult to teach in normal, busy swim practice sessions. Contact Coach Russ for details. Cancellation - The home meet with Sidney, previously scheduled for January 24th, has been cancelled at Sidney’s request. Please note this on your schedules. Meet Entry Forms – The 2008 meet entry forms, which allow the coaches to know which meets you plan to attend and to get you registered, are now past due.
