High School Swim Team Update - Week of 11/9/20

Good afternoon everyone,

It has been great to see the team be back in the water and swing of things this week! Included below are some important reminders and our schedule for the week. The biggest items to be sure to take care of are suit orders (close Fri 9/13) and spiritwear orders (close Sat 9/14). I will be emailing a few reminders this week if parents/swimmers need to sign any of your FinalForms. If you filled yours out approximately two weeks before the season began, it would be a huge help if you could double-check yours. The school office updated the Covid form and added a form from Lake Health that might have bounced yours back to the unsigned stage. Unfortunately, any time they edit the documents in FinalForms, that can happen. If you filled them out inside of two weeks of the season starting, we are seeing most are still green and you are all set. Thank you so much for your help with this!



Reminders:
1.) Spiritwear orders are open through this Saturday, 11/14. You may order at the link included here https://mentorhsswimteam.itemorder.com/. We would like all swimmers to purchase the team t-shirt so that we can match for meet days at school/travel to meets.
2.) The final window for suit orders closes this Friday, 11/13. You may order at the link included here https://aquaticoutfittersofohio.com/pages/mentor-cardinals. The suits are designed to last multiple seasons, and we use the same design each year. If you would like to purchase your own suit for meets, it just needs to be solid black.
3.) If you are not feeling well, please continue to stay home from practice. We know, understand, and want you to be more cautious than in the past. It is okay to miss when feeling sick and we will get you caught up and back on track when you are feeling better!
4.) Please email coaches to let us know of any absences so we can update attendance.
5.) For practice, remember that you will need your suit, towel, goggles, cap (if you wear one), and clothes that you will change into before/after practice.
6.) Please remember to wear masks at all times when not in the water.
