Dear Seahorse Families,

It’s the first day of Summer Practice! Thanks to our Kids Social / Spirit Coordinators - Yola Lerch, Erin Silva, and Irene Henry - for kicking off the summer with Donut Day! Here are a few notes for your review:

RELAYS

When you receive a meet sheet from the Desk team prior to a swim meet, or check your swimmer’s assignments in the SwimTopia app, PLEASE double check whether or not your swimmer is entered in a relay. Unfortunately, several relays had to scratch at Saturday’s meet because members of the relay team departed from the meet early, and left their relay teammates in a lurch! Be a good teammate - stay for relays!

SETUP AT HOME MEETS

The Las Trampas Pool Board has decided that swim meet setup may not begin before:

7:30 AM on Saturday mornings

4:00 PM on Wednesday afternoons

Please do not set up your family area and then depart from the pool.

Thank you for being mindful that our limited deck and grass space is to be shared by many families. We are a large team this year, and we will be swimming against several other large teams! We appreciate your respect for these policies and your fellow swim team families.

PROCEDURE FOR SCRATCHES

If you know that your swimmer will be unable to attend a meet, and the deadline for changing your entry response in Swimtopia has already passed, please email [email protected] AND [email protected] as soon as possible. There are last-minute adjustments that need to be made when a swimmer is unable to attend, so it’s important that you communicate your change in plans.

WEDNESDAY, LTST @ MORAGA RANCH

For those swimmers entered in this Wednesday’s meet at Moraga Ranch, please note that warm-ups begin at 5:00 PM. Please bring layers for Wednesday night meets, which can get chilly! We typically recommend one towel PER EVENT that your child is swimming.

SATURDAY, SUN VALLEY @ LTST

Deadline to declare for the SVST meet is Wednesday, May 31. Please make sure to commit!

SEAHORSE DAY CAMP - A FEW SPOTS LEFT!

Seahorse Day Camp begins next week! A few spots still remain available! Registration is open on the swim team website for swimmers ages 5-10. Campers MUST be swim-safe. We are now opening camp up to Las Trampas members not currently participating in swim team. Register quickly as there are only a few spots left each week. Registration and details can be found HERE. Any questions, please contact Robin Mathers, [email protected]

PARENT PARTIES - A FEW SPOTS LEFT!

We have just a few spots left in our super fun Parent Parties, coming up later this summer. Grab a spot HERE and send your Venmo payment to our LTST Treasurer, Marisa Lynn, @LTSTtreasurer. Please note “Parent Party” when you complete the payment. These parties are open to all LT Pool members as a fundraiser for LTST.

RUMBLE AT LT

The infamous “Rumble” boot camps are designed to build up strength and muscle tone, endurance, functional movement, and overall mobility. They are high energy and FUN!
