A few reminders:

1. Our team swimsuit fitting is at LPRC on Thursday, May 21st, 5:30-7:00PM. You will be able to get fitted for and purchase a team-logo racing swimsuit. Note: competitive swimmers who will be in meets will need one of these suits or a plain black racing suit; Little Lazers don’t have to. The suits you will buy from our vendor, are very nice, but if you’re looking for a less expensive option, we can direct you to online ordering options. (The only drawback is that the suit won’t have a team logo.) Unless you know for sure what kind of suit to order, if you’re ordering online, please talk to Kate, Catherine, or Natalie before ordering so we make sure you get the right kind. If you need help with sizing, you can come to the fitting and then order online. Finally, if you can’t come to the try on but still want a team suit, you can always go to Sportfair in Arlington and tell them you’re from LPRC, and they’ll sell you a team suit.
2. The same evening, also at LPRC, we will have our 2026 Team Leadership meeting at 6:00PM. I need RSVPs (for the food) no later than Wednesday at noon, which can be accessed at this link. Whether or not you're in a leadership position, we welcome anyone who has some interest in helping organize the team to come learn more. We'll feed you sandwiches, salad, and desert from Wegmans - it's really good. No obligation for showing up!
3. Our biggest fundraiser of the year, our carwash, is scheduled for June 5th, 6-8PM, at Braddock Baptist Church! We typically raise hundreds of dollars, so this is a big deal. A sign up genius for volunteers will go out later this week, and we need the help, so please sign up. That same night, Chick-Fil-A will be at the pool selling dinners, 5-7PM, as part of the fundraiser, but we need to guarantee enough interest for them to come, so please sign up here. If enough people don't sign up, CFA won't come.
4. Keep in mind the officials training; the schedule is linked here. If you're unsure of what we need or what the positions are, reach out to Kate. But we always need Starters and Referees. (You have to be trained as a Stroke and Turn Judge and a Starter before you can be a Referee.) Again, reach out to Kate with any questions.
5. And for those who haven't signed up for swim team, please do at this link! One point of clarification: for summer swim the link to sign up for swim is the same for all swimmers, Little Lazers, Transitional, and Big Lazers. So, don't worry about your kids' levels, just sign them up and we'll work out the details later.

Thanks! Excited for the season to begin!
