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.
