Tis the season!
It is the great time of year when anyone that is not connected to swimming cannot understand what the guys go through over these next few weeks. Christmas break practice is the TOUGHEST part about being a swimmer. It is also, however, the time were the swimmers can make the most progress. The main thing is to be at the practices if at all possible. The Christmas schedule has been distributed via email and I will post it here as well. As a reminder, if someone is going to miss a practice, please let the coaches know in advance. On top of that, any activities where injury could occur (i.e. skiing, snowboarding, etc.) is best avoided.
Christmas break practice:
Sat Dec. 22 : 11-1
Mon Dec.24: 9-12
Tues Dec.25: OFF
Wed Dec.26: 11-2
Thur Dec.27: JENISON INVITATIONAL
Fri Dec.28: 11-2
Sat Dec.29: 11-1
Mon Dec.31: 11-2
Tues Jan. 1: OFF
Wed Jan. 2: 11-2
Thur Jan. 3: 11-2
Fri Jan. 4: 11-2
Sat Jan. 5: 9-11
In regards to the Jenison Invitational, it is a great meet! It is a perfect way to break up Christmas break training and swim a fun meet. The entire team will participate.
Enjoy your holiday season. Encourage your swimmers as this is a tough time.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!!!!!

Rob, I think you meant "miss a practice"! Let's all agree that there are some things that are worth getting out of the pool to take care of!
Thanks Paul. In a way, I am glad that people are actually reading this stuff!
And, yes, that would be worth getting out of the pool to take care of.
Any news for this coming week, Rob? How are we doing?
Thanks for all the hard work you three put in for our swimmers over these holidays.
hi rob! neat site. maybe you could add an "alumni" section where you mention old GRC swimmers and where they went to college and how they did at their schools. that would be a neat feature!
