Well, unfortunately for some of us, and fortunately for others of us, we are going to be doing Fourth Period. Now you guys are probably thinking I'm crazy and wondering, "what do we do the month we can't be in the pool?" Let me explain. The big people in charge of sports set up dates where we CANNOT practice with a coach on the deck. Our first OFFICIAL practice was September 19th and our first meet we were able to hold October 12th. But with the recent change in the start date of school, who knows when we are going to start!
Now that I'm done ranting on that, let's get back to the actual subject. We will be doing Fourth Period, yes it's true, but last year for the preseason games, we went to the pool to run and lift weights and do dryland-ish stuff. This year we may not be doing that. Why? Well, it's simple. We have a track. We have a weight room. We have a gym (2, actually). So why not do it at the school? Coach Nate is going to talk to the principal about it and hopefully, our new principal will let us do that.
On another hand, we have a fundraiser! As you all know very well, we ended up having to pay for a meet last year. We don't want that to happen this year! We want to go to all meets WITHOUT paying for them. So, we have a fundraiser set for September 3rd (yes that's Labor Day) at RC Willey's. We will be the people that are outside selling Hot Dogs. We will be doing this, Monday, September 3rd, from 10-3. So if you can come, please do. We are kind of sort of, lacking a budget, so bring anyone you can to help! (I think bringing people who haven't set foot in a pool as a Titan Swimmer yet is an excellent idea, or if you're reading this and you fall under the "Future Titan Swimmer" category, come!)
I can't wait to see you all at our first fourth period practice! If you want to get back in shape, come to Master's Class at the Clearfield Aquatic Center at 9:00 PM on Tuesday and Thursdays. Madison, Greg, and myself are there, and I think it would be a party if you all came. So see you there!
P.S. I'm planning on talking to the school to see if we can get our schedules changed to include Fourth Period for free. I'll tell you about that at our meeting on September 6th. If you didn't know, there's a meeting in the Auditorium September 6th at 2:30.
