Parents,

This Saturday we have our novice meet.  It is geared towards our younger divers, but there is an open event for older divers to try and get off new dives.  I would like as many of our divers to participate as possible. 

We will also run concessions during the meet from 10 to about 1ish…when it is completed.  We will sell the extra items we had left from Nike Cup.

I will have our divers fill out the diving sheets this week.  Warm ups will be at 10:00, and hopefully we can start at 11:00 am.  Parking will not be an issue this Saturday.

There is a $10.00 entry fee.  Instead of medals or ribbons, we will hand out goodie bags for the kids.

Thanks!

Kevin

Parents,

We do not have practice this sat…due to the UNC/DUKE FB game.  I’m sorry for all the changes and corrections.  Still will run 2 practices on Friday though.  10 – noon, and 5 – 7.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Parents,

First of all, thank you to everyone that dished in to help with concessions.  We raised about $650.00 which will go directly into help paying for GAC pool rent.  We will sell the left over concessions December 3rd when we run our novice meet.

Here is an updated schedule for Thanksgiving break:

Monday:  Normal

Tuesday:  Men’s BB game, NO practice

Wed:  Practice from 5 to 7

Thursday:  NO practice – Happy Thanksgiving

Friday:  10:00 to Noon & 5:00 to 7:00

Saturday:  10:00 to Noon

These practices are for all groups:  JO and Beginner

Just a reminder, Nov. 30th, there is a Men’s BB game, no practice.

Have a great Thanksgiving!

Kevin

Parents,

There are two BB games on the 20th (Sunday) and the 22nd (Tuesday – prior to Thanksgiving).  Unfortunately, we will not be able to practice those days.  Sorry for the oversight.

Also, we still need people to sign up to work concessions.  Please take the time out of your schedule to do so.  You can check out the times and sign up here:

Thanks!

Best,

Kevin

Parents,

I just found out that THD will be working concessions during the Collegiate Nike Cup meet!  I am asking that each of you find a time to work a 90 min.  shift.  I have asked Meg McDaniels to help and organize this because she knows the parents of NCAC swimming that have run Nike Cup concessions previously.   

This money will go towards paying for Pool Rent at Greensboro through next summer.  It costs our club about $600.00 every 2 months of pool rent there.  If you work concessions, and we have extra money, we will take some funds and put it towards your monthly tuition or team warm ups.  Here are the times:

THURSDAY

AM PRELIMS: 

7:30 to 9:00 (2 people work)

9:00 to 10:30 (2 people work)

PM FINALS

5:30 to 7:00 (2 people work)

7:00 to 8:30 (2 people work)

The schedule will be the same for Friday and Saturday.  I will send you a link online to sign up for.  Please find a time that works.  We need EVERYONE to sign up, regardless if you are beginner or JO parent.  High School divers can work too, but nobody younger than 9th grade. 

This is a great opportunity.  These fundraisers help everyone keep THD costs down.  Thanks for your help and sorry about the short notice.

Kevin

Parents:

Parents,

We will have Saturday (11/12/11) practice from 10:00 am to noon.  All groups.

Thanks.

Kevin

Parents,

There will not be practice Friday night due to the UNC Mile meet.  Saturday there is a FB game, so there is no practice either.  Beginner parents, please pass the word onto other beginners.

Thanks!

Kevin

Parents,

There is no practice this Friday night due to Late Night With Roy Williams.  We will not have practice Saturday either.

Thanks to all of those that attended.  It was nice to see all of the parents there and a great way to finish up the summer.

Kevin

Parents,

Just a reminder about our end of the summer banquet tonight.  The awards will start around 5:10.  If it rains, we will have it in the team room on deck, down by the coaches offices.  We will dive shortly after that until about 6:45 or so.  Then we will eat upstairs.

I ask that you bring a dish to pass.  I will provide drinks, desserts, and the paper-ware.  See you tonight!

Kevin
