- Like the re-opening process - we are starting very small and establishing procedures and practices and then learning, improving and growing.
- July 1 Time Trial at RAC - The coaches reported some great racing and results from the time trial at RAC today. Process-wise getting the live YouTube feed was tough and will be important so athletes can follow along. The BIGGEST thing is that when athletes are outside the building(s) masks come off and distancing is cast aside. This has to be improved, supported and adhered to.
- Dropping Off Procedure - Parents, when dropping off your athlete, please park and then let them come to the doors. We have had multiple lines of cars out front and with younger athletes running around, it could help avoid a potential accident.
- Also - please reinforce with your older swimmers:
- Keep your mask on outside and maintain distancing
- Speed in the parking lots - SLOW IT DOWN!
- Wisconsin Swimming, Inc - Support WI Swimming, Inc so that essential services can be maintained. Donate directly or buy a T Shirt, Sweatshirt or Mug and make a gift. See the News article (the click here doesn’t work)
Send a Photo of you with your Mug, T Shirt or Sweatshirt to Dave for the next newsletter!
- A survey will be coming out in the next weeks to try to get a handle on what all of your schools will be doing this fall so we can try to figure out how to conduct training.
- Elsmore Reopened Its Brown Deer Location with revised hours.
Tuesday 12:30pm-7:30pm
Thursday 12:30pm-7:30pm
Please contact kelly@elsmoreswim.com if you have questions.
- Intent to continue in August - our intent is to continue training through August rather than take a break. How that all looks is TBD but it will vary by group.
