Over the Christmas break, there will be six days that lap swimming will be available. If you have missed practices and would like to make some of those days up, for each one of the following days attended, it will make up for one missed practice. There wont be many more make up days, so this is your best opportunity.
As I said before, due to the high school rules, we cannot have organized practices over this break. Therefore, we are not allowed to swim during the break for free. Each visit costs $3 per person or you may go in on a 15 punch pass with a friend or two. For three people, the punch pass would break down to $2.75 per visit. I don't really understand the rule and I don't like the rule but will follow the rule. Also, since we cannot have organized practices, the coaches will not be there to coach. There will be a coach there, however, to mark the names of those in attendance. The coach will also have a workout prepared for the swimmers to follow on their own.
During the times listed the Clearfield City Aquatic Team will be holding workouts and its possible that there will be other lap swimmers so we will be sharing the pool. This is not an ideal situation but any swimming you can do over the break will help. With only a few days off for Thanksgiving, our swimmers came back a little out of shape. If you take all 10 days off, it will be almost like starting over and will take at least two weeks to get back to where you were when you left. So, with that said, get in the water as much as you can over the break.
Here are the dates:
Monday 12/23 10 AM-12PM
Tuesday 12/24 10 AM-12PM
Thursday 12/26 11AM-12PM
Friday 12/27 10AM-12PM
Monday 12/30 10AM-12PM
Tuesday 12/31 10AM-12PM
Regular practice resumes on 1/2 after school.
I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a happy new year.

The first link will take you to a site that keeps track of all the high school swimmers in the state. Find Syracuse in the 5A column and if you click on the meets link, you can find the meet results for Syracuse meets for the last few years. For the moment, when you click on the swimmers link you will see our swimmers best times from last year. Once our meets begin this season, this is where you will be able to find what your current best times are. You can also find the full results for the state championship meets last year Use this tool to see where you are, where you have been and where you need to be (talking about your times here).
The second link will take you to a site that includes plenty of articles about swimming but most importantly you can find all kinds of videos that will help you understand each stroke a little better. There are underwater views so you can see what your body is supposed to be doing. Take a look! You may learn something.

State; Swim Banquet
Congratulations to one of out captains, Natalie P! She gets the oppurtunity to go to state and this is something that is quite an accomplishment and that deserves some recognition. She has worked very hard to get there. Also, at regionals, Madison B. was awarded a medal for placing 6th overall in the region on the 100 backstroke! Amazing job Titans!
I'm asking for all of the team for one day to go to state, and support your teammate and captain. The more support we have the better. There will be a lot of people there from rival schools, and we don't want them to "outspirit" us do we? NO! So if you can go, we'll be down there on Friday, February 8th for fun, and support. State is being held at BYU.
Next on our agenda is the Swim Banquet. As many of you know, I (Alyssa) have been taking crap-loads of pictures throughout the season at our meets and activities. These are being made towards the swim banquet movie. And if you don't know what the swim banquet is, here is what it is. At the swim banquet, we reflect back on the previous season. We eat food, and chill with our friends for one last time. We also give out the letters (so you can go and get your lettersmen jackets.), and other various awards. Awards given out in the past have included the most improved swimmer award, and the best team spirit award. This is something you don't want to miss out on. As soon as there is a date, I will let you know. All we know is that it will be sometime after state.
ALSO! I NNNNNNNNNEEEEEEEEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD your pictures that you have taken this past season. I will take any and all that you have of the team or yourselves. If you have any, upload them here.
Another note, if you haven't been recieving our text messages but would like to, please fill out this form and we will get you added to our list of people to text. Here's the link.

An Update
First and foremost I'd like to announce that due to winter storm Gandalf, practice has been cancelled today! That was pretty much the whole reason in writing today.
I'd also like to take the time to thank everyone who came to the Christmas Party. It was a great success, and I don't know about you guys, but I had a TON of fun. For those who missed, you guys missed out on an epic party. From Gingerbread house making, to the white elephant, to the whipped cream game! And for those that stayed after, the Princess Bride. I really hope that you all enjoyed it as much as I did.
In the works currently is the swim team banquet video. At the end of the year we have a "party" called the swim banquet. The date has yet to be decided upon, but it's way fun. If you took any pictures of you and your swim team friends, please send them to this link: https://docs.google.com/folder/d/0BwY6BeQcFLDkbVdQTmcyMGM1Ylk/edit
Thanks for all your hard work titans! It's paying off!
And... ENJOY YOUR DAY OFF! :D
