Tide Swims at Platteville

The Krueger Swim Team had a GREAT day at Platteville. Will have results and ribbons soon. Everyone swam well and had a good time. Even the Old Man of the Sea (Coach DeKok) swam well. I will post results and hand out ribbons when they come in.

Reminder Leaving Krueger by 6AM

If you are following me Saturday. I am leaving Krueger Parking Lot by 6am.

Platteville Meet and other INFO!!

Right now we have 63 swimmers entered, it is still not to late to sign up. I am handing out information Thursday and Friday. Including Map to Platteville Pool, Entry list with events. I have not finished putting Relays together. Some of you will age up for relays so we can get almost everyone in at least one relay. Most of you are swimming at least 3 individual events. If you are following me Saturday, I am leaving the Krueger Pool parking lot at 6am sharpe.

Now for the Bad News some of you have not offically joined the team yet. For this program to survive I need you to pay your fees. Most of those not paid are the older kids. I will be hunting you down the next two days. If you do not pay I will have to stop having you come to practice. If you swam any where else you would be spending hundreds if not thousands of dollars to swim for a club like the BATs or JayHawks. If you want this program to stay afordable and to continue you need to pay your fees.

Practice Monday

Water Temp is 80 degrees. Finally had the Sun out to warm pool. Air Monday is predicted to be in the 90's. So it will be warm in the morning. Still need personal data sheets and are you going to the meet Saturday. Wednesday Remember to bring Running Shoes.

Friday washed out

Friday's Practice was washed out. 8&u and rookies were in the water when the lightening came. See you Monday. Have a great weekend.
