Weekly Updates
New training suits and other gear … Hour swim news … Prayers for Anna’s children … Dues autopay … Coach skips town … Workout schedule notes.
Here is our new workout polyester training suit for 2008! We have ordered the Navy (far right) print. Female suits come in sizes 22-40. Two piece suits are offered 26-38. The men’s jammer suits range in size from 26-38. I’ve already picked up a suit from Reebok, and I wear my usual size. They are now in stock at D & J, but you will need a coupon from me to verify that you get your suit for free. Plan on wearing it every Fashion Friday!
Shirts/caps and other items will be available for pickup at each practice starting next Thursday.
Congratulations on a fantastic performance thus far on our One Hour swims!

Anna Kurz’s (Elvis is their uncle) children were involved in a very serious car accident. Marlena (12) has a broken arm, femur, pelvis, numerous stitches, head trauma and severe cuts across her face. Nigel (18) has a crushed pelvis and femur, of which both required separate surgeries to repair, punctured lung, injured bladder and bleeding on the brain, which has now been controlled. Marlena is of good spirits and we hope to come home within the week. Nigel struggles with severe pain, but flew through his surgeries, like the fighter that he is. He will remain in the hospital at least 3 weeks. Both are progressing forward and appreciate all your thoughts and prayers.

If you logged in to pay for January or February, then monthly charges will be automatically billed each month moving forward on the 5th of each month. If you paid in full for the year, you are good to go. If you only paid your annual team dues, then please continue to pay monthly as you had previously set up in 2007.
