Hello Killer Whales!

That was a challenging Meet but we're always proud of our Killer Whales, win or lose.  Your sportsmanship and encouragement towards everyone is noticed and we love watching you swim.  The Meets final score was Sea Lions 345 and Killer Whales 164. 

TONIGHT: Come ready to splash and swirl at our colorful Tie-Dye extravaganza from 5pm - 8pm! We still have special Killer Whale t-shirts available in youth and adult sizes that will be available for purchase at the event. The theme for our 7/7 home meet will be Tie-Dye Hippie so you can show off your creation.

Next up this week is our Sat MOR clinics (unique practice times below), followed by Monday's Donuts and Drawing (RSVP). We'll be making card's for Amy's Rays of Sunshine. 

See you on Deck!
