Happy 4th of July Weekend, Killer Whales!

What a fun, close meet we had this past week!  The Alligators sprinted to a quick lead; however, in the end, the Killer Whale habitat and stamina proved too much for the tropical-loving Alligators. The final score is Killer Whales (Div 2) 282 and Alligators (Div 3) 236. Great job, Killer Whales!

We'll send the 7/7 Pre-Meet info out on Monday morning. Meanwhile, in the midst of your 4th of July plans, don't forget to declare your swimmer before Sunday Noon and pre-order Romeo's (flier attached) or Barone Italian Grille.  We'll also welcome back the Farmhouse Fizz Soda Bar.

Have a fun and safe 4th of July weekend. We'll see you back on Deck for Monday  practices!
