Other Upcoming Meets and Special Events
The BASS Meet, held in Woodberry Forest (near Charlottesville, VA) will be held January 30-31st. The meet invitation may be found under the Meets Page of the website. The online meet signup has been added and the deadline for signup is Friday, January 15th. Please make a note that today (1/3) is the last day to receive a group rate for the hotel.
Hotel information is now available for the A/BB meet in Lynchburg, VA held February 26th - February 28th. The group rate for this hotel will be available until February 3, 2010.
NEW Security Measure:
As a security measure, we are now asking every Olympic Development Swimmer to complete an online meet signup form, even if you will not participate in the meet. If you will not compete in the meet, simply select "I will NOT attend this meet" under the question "Which days will you attend this meet?"
Completing this form even when you are not participating in the meet is Quick and Easy and tells the coaches that you did not simply forget to fill out the form, and that you definitely do not intend to participate in this meet. Also, doing so makes it very easy for us to see if somebody is completing forms for another person. We have not had any problems with this in the past and do not expect to in the future, but it is the simplest security measure to put in place at this time.
Additional Information
December 17th was the last day of Session 1. Swimmers that will not be retruning for session 2, which begins Monday, January 4th, should contact Scott Baldwin and the Registrar, Anne Lawson, to ensure you will not receive future bills.
We apologize for any confusion resulting from the last minute practice change on Satuday (1/2).
The Krispy Kreme Donut Fundraiser is now taking place. Order forms were passed out at the Winter Carnival Meet. All order forms should be turned into Allen Roseberry at Blacksburg Aquatic Center on Friday, January 8, 2010. If you will not be there on this day, drop the order form off with a coach before January 8th and we will ensure that Allen receives it. Donuts will be delivered to BAC for pickup on Tuesday (1/12) and Wednesday (1/13). Contact Allen Roseberry with questions using the contact information listed under the 'Parents Page' of the website. The cost is $6 per dozen.
We will be placing one final order for H2okie warm-ups this year. If you are interested in ordering warm-ups, please contact Brenda Whitesell via email or at BAC on most afternoons. Jackets are $45 and the pants are $35. Jacket has H2okie logo and name and pants have name on back. Deadline for orders and money is Monday, January 18th.
