Hello Waverunners! Looking forward to another great week of practices! Please see below for important information about this week’s schedule, our first Spirit Night, Lucky Ducks fundraiser, and stroke clinics. Thank you all for completing your RSVP for this week’s meet!

**The weather can be unpredictable during swim season, so please make sure you have subscribed to the Remind app. If we need to cancel practice or delay the meet due to weather, I will communicate that through the Remind app (not by email). I have sent several messages on Remind over the past week. If you have not gotten them, then you are not registered. :)

Our first restaurant "Spirit Night" is this Friday night, 5/31, 3pm - 7pm! Come celebrate the night after our first away meet with other Waverunners at Dagwood’s Pizza. *Note that this is a different day this week. Dine-in and Take-out orders will count (not 3rd party orders like with Grubhub). Dagwood’s will donate 10% of all sales to go to our team! Please make sure to mention that you are supporting the Peachtree Corners Waverunners swim team when you order. If you order directly with them online, there is a place under “Special Instructions” for you to mention our team name.

*As always, reach out to the swim team board if you have any questions. Email: [email protected]

Thanks,

Ryan

Participate in the “LUCKY DUCKS” FUNDRAISER: This is something we wanted to try to build some team spirit and fun for our meets. These are collectible rubber ducks that will have a message attached to wish your swimmer good luck! The ducks are 1 for $3 and 2/$5 and all proceeds will benefit our swim team. We will offer them before each meet. Since this is a short week, the turnaround time is tight. We need any purchased ducks to be made by 10PM on Wednesday 5/29 so that they can be made for your swimmers for this week. Please click HERE to fill out the form to order. You will need to then go to PayPal to complete your purchase.  Which duck will your swimmer get??
