The Concord Meet is ON

Hello,

UPDATE: There are a large number of widely scattered storms in our area and to our west. There is no way to know which, if any, will affect our meet tonight.

PLEASE COME TO THE MEET REGARDLESS OF THE WEATHER...if there are delays, we will get through them as best we can. If the storms get bad enough to call off the meet, we will do this. Safety is the #1 concern at all times.

We can't win the meet if folks decide to stay home and the meet goes on as scheduled.

*****

We are going to have a very exciting meet tonight! Concord is coming to town, and they are bringing a lot of great swimmers. However, we have great swimmers too, and we will have a lot more folks in the water than they will. It is OUR pool, so we have the advantage. It is my hope that we will overwhelm them and win this meet outright.

Please remind your swimmer(s) to drink lots of water or clear liquid today. NO SODA! Ask them to rest and stay out of the sun during the hot afternoon hours. Food should be good carbs like pasta, fruit and veggies. Please limit fat and refined sugars. This will help each swimmer do their best tonight.

Please encourage your swimmer(s) to cheer for thier teammates tonight. Lots of noise and lots of excitement will help everyone do their best. In several of our recent meets, a good number of swimmers have dropped SECONDS off thier best times. If we can do this tonight, the close races will be victories for us. Having everyone really excited will be the best way to make this happen.

Thanks for all your support. Go Jets!

Jim
