We had a nice holiday swim Thursday and Alison Brought cookies for when we were done.
5 Swimmers came for the fun. Mark Alison Harry Colin Diane
It is a little chilly outside, but the water was nice. Hope to see everyone next Thursday.

Holiday Swim Schedule

We're only going to have practices on Thursday for the next two weeks.
The Y will be open all day on New Year's Day, we may have a casual
practice in the afternoon, check the blog for Details.

On the other days - Christmas Eve, Christmas and New Year's Eve - the Y will be closed so practice will not be an option. Normal practice schedule will resume on January 3, 2007

Just a reminder. The 2008 registration forms are now on the Florida Masters site. In order to swim in any Masters competition, you need to be registered with USMS. Please use the link below to access our form. Fill it out, print it, and bring it to me along with your registration fee (please make checks out to Masters of Orlando) and you'll be all set.
