Barracuda BBQ Success

Prince George Barracuda Swim Club

Barracuda BBQ Success

Hello Swim Families,

A very warm thank you to all of you parents for an excellent season and everything you do for our growing athletes. We see you, yes I'm talking about you cooking healthy meals, driving to early morning swim practices, the weekend commitments, all while keeping up with the shopping, cleaning, laundry and especially all of those extra wet towels every week. I'm talking about the caring and the love and the scooting your kiddo(s) off to bed at a descent hour, the long drives for swim meets, the nagging, the laughing, the encouragement, your continued ability to make time for and support our club events, the pride you show for your swimmers and day after day you just continue to pour your love into these amazing kids - and it all shows. The kids were so kind, helpful and happy and it was exciting to watch them in their picnic competitions (mine in sock feet), laughing their heads off and having fun with their buddies. ;

And weren't those Centennial burgers AMAZINGGG?

All this to say I hope you have a Summer filled with fresh air, sunshine, water and rest. Soon it will be Fall with autumn leaves, crisp evenings and our next event this October - 'Barracuda Awards Night' with a dinner, silent auction, door prizes and of course goodies for the kiddos.

Good luck to our swim families heading off to Summer Divisionals and Summer Provincials.

Warm wishes to you and yours,

See you in the Fall,

Wendy

BBQ and Contribution

BBQ and Contribution

Hello all,

I hope you are getting through this very busy month with as much ease as possible.

Gentle reminder that if you have not RSVP'd for the BBQ on June 17th to please do so today or tomorrow. I am going shopping for supplies this weekend and I would love to have enough food to feed everyone (joking not joking).

Also if you have not contributed to the coaches gifts can you please consider sending me an e-transfer for $10 - $15 for each swimmer you have with the club to wendy.m.bergman@gmail.com. We are about $300 away from my goal to get Jason and Jerzy $100 gift cards and mugs and Kathleen and Magda $75 gift cards and mugs and everybody else $50 gift cards. If not no problem and certainly no pressure!

If you have not signed the cards do not worry I will be at the pool Mon, Tues, Wed, Thursday and will have the cards set up in the gazebo to sign on the 17th.

Kindly,

Wendy

practice cancellations, pool set up and information about Dental Moose Meet

Good Morning!

This email contains information that affects all groups in the club.

This weekend, we are hosting our annual long course Moose Meet, sponsored be the dental community of PG.

Therefore, practices for all groups will be cancelled Friday, Saturday and Sunday; including Monday morning's Youth practice.

I will be at the pool for 11:45 Friday morning to set up the pool. If anyone is able to come out for about 60 minutes or so, to lend a hand, that would be great. Send me an email, jason@pgbsc.org, if you are able to volunteer.

Many of the kids in D2C will be attending their first ever meet. This will be a great opportunity for them, and their parents, to see how much fun there is over the course of the weekend. Under the Parent's Tab on our website, click on Swim Meet Information. There is lots of information about what to bring to the pool as well as what to expect while you are there. So do take a moment to read through that.

All swimmers must wear their Barracuda t-shirt.

All swimmers must wear their Barracuda cap for all their races. If you need an extra cap, contact Nicole at equipment@pgbsc.org

All swimmers must be on the pool deck by the far bleachers in the deep end of the pool 20 minutes prior the the beginning of warm ups each day.

Friday warm ups 4:30-5:30pm. Racing begins at 5:40 until approx 8:00pm.

Saturday and Sunday warm ups 8-9am. Racing begins at 9:10am until approx 1:30pm, each day.

If you have any questions, please let me know.

Cheers,

Jason
