UPCOMING MEETS THIS WEEK!  We have TWO MORE MEETS coming up this week:

• THIS Thursday, Dec 16^th at Oak Ridge Civic Center – HIGH SCHOOL ONLY meet. Please RSVP if you haven’t already. We still need several additional parent volunteers. Covid restrictions at the Oak Ridge Civic Center do not allow parents in the pool area so get signed up for a front row view of the action. Plan to join us after the meet at Chicfila in Oak Ridge for dinner!

• Saturday, Dec. 18^th – Ray Bussard Meet at Allan Jones More meet info will be sent out in the next day or two. We still have some families who have not responded to our request to fill their volunteer shift. Please get online and get signed up. There are also several hospitality items we need if you can help up out with that as well.

*HOSPITATLITY ITEMS will need to be brought to the pool on Saturday morning by 10:30 am or can be dropped off by Thursday evening at the Salsbury’s house (9419 Trails End Road 37931). I will leave a bin outside the garage where you can drop your items off.

We are working on what our HOLIDAY BREAK PRACTICE SCHEDULE will look like. As soon as it is finalized we will let you know. We do know that there will be NO PRACTICE the week of Dec. 20^th (the pool is closed for repairs).
