385 [PGBSC Blog] D3, D2AB and D2C parents

Hi Everyone

Saturday is the Christmas mini meet. We will need parents to help time, marshal and pass out ribbons. This mini meet is fun for all and easy, if there is a lot of volunteers.

Don't worry if you can't work a watch we will teach you before the meet starts.

See you there...

384 [PGBSC Blog] PRINCE GEORGE BARRACUDAS ANNUAL HOLIDAY FOOD DRIVE

As in previous  years, we will be holding a holiday food drive this year on Saturday, December 8th. This is the same weekend as the Christmas time trial for some swimmers. We are asking each swimmer to bring in their donation bag on Saturday morning. Donations may include any non perishable food items, hygiene products, etc. Each swimmer who brings in a donation will be entered in a draw to win a gift card, and the group (youth/national, elite, D1, D2A/B etc.) who brings in the most donations will also win a group prize. All donations collected will be given to our local Salvation Army Food Bank.

 

If you have any questions, feel free to talk to Kathryn Binnema, Jessa Wing or Bailey Hardy around the pool, or email jessamary@shaw.ca. Thank you in advance for your support, and have a happy holiday season!
