As was discussed during our pre-season planning meeting\, the coaches would like to create opportunities for the team to come together away from the pool. Based on feedback team members provided via the online questionnaire\, over 60% of respondents indicated they would like to return to the Field of Screams this year.
Please plan to join your teammates on Sunday\, October 13. There is no school on Monday\, October 14 so this was identified as an ideal date for all members to attend.
