Lee's Hill Lightning News - Practice with a Purpose - RSL Finals Week Schedule

 

Dear Lee’s Hill Lightning Families,

 

We have had a great 2017 swim season so far! Hope everyone is getting ready for RSL Finals!

 

There are a lot of activities going on next week! I will be sending out more e-mails over the weekend with additional information on RSL Finals and volunteering at Finals.

 

Next Week’s Schedule:

 

Practice with a Purpose - Monday

 

Team Breakfast after Practices – Friday

 

RSL Finals – Saturday

 

Award Banquet - Sunday

 

Thanks to our wonderful families who continue to support us in so many ways, our generous corporate sponsors, and of course an amazing group of swimmers and their families which truly are the backbone of the Lee’s Hill Lightning Swim Team.

 

THANK YOU for all that you do for the Lee’s Hill Lighting Swims Team and our swim community.

 

We strive to meet our challenge of keeping reasonable program costs while covering the continually increased pool expenses and our new insurance.

 

This year we would like to try something new.  We would like to call Monday’s practice – Practice with a Purpose!  The goal is to make this Practice with a Purpose a fundraiser for the team and some very important charities supporting our physically challenged

 

swimmers in our Lee’s Hill community!

 

Besides challenging our swimmers to Practice with a Purpose by swimming as many practice laps as they can, we will be: Taking photos of smiling faces & cheering on our teammates as they push towards swimming as many practice laps as they can!

 

To make this happen, we need two things from you:

 

  • Your swimmer's participation in the Practice with a Purpose
  • Parent volunteers to help cheer on our swimmers and possibly count laps

 

WHAT IS PRACTICE WITH A PURPOSE?

 

On Monday, July 31st, swimmers will swim as many practice laps as they can in any stroke during their normal practice time.

 

Prior to that event, each swimmer will have the opportunity to raise pledges from family and friends. From the monies raised, the Lee’s Hill Lightning Swim Team will be giving back to the community!

 

WHAT DO WE NEED TO DO?

 

Ask relatives, friends, and neighbors to pledge either a flat amount or per lap pledge. Please, no door-to-door asking! Turn in Sponsor Summary Sheet with all donations by RSL Finals on August 5th. Checks cans be made out to LHST.

 

PARENT VOLUNTEERS! Your assistance is welcome to help count the swimmers practice laps, and CHEER! We hope to build even more comradery amongst our Lee’s Hill Lightning Swim Team family.

 

We look forward to your participation in our Practice with a Purpose!

 

Go Lightning!

 

Bob
