Hope you’re ready to take off, Racers!  Our new head coach, Kendall (she’s so excited to meet all of you), Coach Tiffany, Coach Stephanie, and Junior Coach Nick have been working hard to prepare challenging workouts and lots of fun, team-building activities (that means we’ll play some crazy games).  We can’t wait to see all of our returning Racers.  And, please encourage your friends to join us, too!

Registration will take place on Monday, April 14 from 6:00 to 8:00 PM at Forest Hill Elementary School .  Registration fees are $60 per child for members, with an additional family fee of $100 for non-members.  Since this is a “swimsuit year”, Cy’s Toggery will be there so you can try on suits and place your order.  They will also have goggles and other apparel on hand.  Remember, your checks should be made payable to “Cy’s Toggery”, not Rock Spring.

Definitely mark your calendar for 7:00 PM on May 27 – this is our first day of practice.  I think it’s going to be 90° that day (we’re positive thinkers)!  Make sure you also mark your calendar for 6:00 on May 28 for our Pizza/Salad Social, after which the coaches will have an opportunity to talk to and work with the swimmers, as well as meet with all of the parents about our season.

The HSL (Harford Swim League) is now a three division league.  We are in the middle division, which means there will be a lot of close-scoring meets!

We want to also remind you to gather all of your used books – we are holding a Used Book Sale on June 21 – 22.  We’re also very excited that our team will be conducting a Swim-a-Thon on June 26 to benefit the John Archer Therapeutic Swim Program.  We can’t wait to talk to everyone and share even more news about our upcoming season.  If you have any questions at all, please contact Nancy Mahoney (nancinba@comcast.net) or Tom Glassman.  There is also a link on our website (rssc.info) with swim team information.
