Hi Everyone,

Welcome to the first week of the summer swim season! While the water will be cool, the weather looks great! Below is the schedule for the week:

Tuesday, 5/30

• Pizza: We have coordinated a fundraiser with Manhattan Pizza in Urbana all day on Tuesday. Simply, show the attached flyer or mention the Blue Crabs fundraiser when you are ordering. 20% of all sales will directly support our team!
• Officials Training: At 6pm there will be a virtual training for officials. Becoming trained as an official is a tremendous way to volunteer and support the Blue Crabs! If you are interested, please fill out this form (team: VUBC). The same training will also be held on 5/31, 6/1, 6/6, 6/7, and 6/8.

Wednesday, 5/31

• Blue Crabs Practice: Our first day of practice for the Blue Crabs! If your swimmer is 8 & under, they will practice from 4:00-4:45; 11 & over will practice from 5:00-6:00; and 9-10 will practice from 5:15-6:00. 
• Practice Procedures: Please note that the pool will be closed during our practice times this week, so swimmers will enter the pool through the gate closest to the lap pool (see attached file which includes the entry point and the parent area). The VOU has requested that we do not enter the pool through the locker rooms during those times that the pool is closed.

Thursday, 6/1

• Blue Crabs Practice: The schedule will be the same as Wednesday for the Blue Crabs: 8 & under from 4:00-4:45, 11 & over from 5:00-6:00, and 9-10 from 5:15-6:00. We would love to have as many of our older swimmers as are interested arrive by 4:40 to help with the Mini Crabs practice.
• Mini Crabs Practice: The Mini Crabs will hold their first practice from 4:45-5:15. 

Friday, 6/2

• POOL PARTY! Come on out and enjoy a fun evening together with the Seahawks at the Stone Barn pool from 4:00-7:00 PM. Bring dinner or order pizza and enjoy this time as a community celebrating the end of school and the start of the summer swim season! Popsicles will be provided and the weather looks perfect!

That's it for this week. We will see you all soon!
