Hello Barracudas!!

What an amazing first day of practice. It was so good to see our swimmers so excited to be back and eager to jump in and show their improved skills!

We wanted to take a moment and say thank you for making the first day so memorable and enjoyable!

A few things that came up that we would like to provide additional information for:

1. The decision for the new seating area was made by the swim team board, not FOSRC pool management. It was made out of safety concerns for you and your family and allowed for more room.   If you have any further questions please feel free to find a board member and we will be happy to discuss.

2.  As in previous years, parents are not allowed on the pool deck during practices. Beginning today, the gates will be closed and only swimmers, coaches, and board members will be permitted on deck.  

3. Pool entry gates- both gates by the tennis courts are open for entry during practices and you may use either.  The main gate by the gym is not available for swim team use. 

4. Towels- It is suggested to bring 2 towels, especially for the littles. One can be used on deck when not in the water and the other one can be used after practice.  We understand during April and the crazy Texas weather it can be chilly.

5. All swimmers must swim with their own age groups and at their own scheduled times. We understand everyone’s schedules can be difficult but for safety and skills we need to make sure they are in their proper swimming age group.

6. If registration payment has not been rec'd (and not previously discussed with the treasurer) we do ask it be brought this week and given to a board member.  This also applies to the $250 un-dated volunteer deposit checks.

7.  Parents - if you have questions or concerns for the coaches, please email them or ask a board member. Coaches need to be in the pool or on deck focused on the swimmers at all times.  In most cases, a board member can answer the question or get the answer quickly.   

We appreciate you and are excited for this swim season!   If you have any additional questions, please let us know.
