Lightning News - Friday Breakfast and Sunday's Awards Celebration

Hi Lightning families!

As we enter the last week of a wonderful swim team season, there are two fun events coming up for our Lightning swimmers and families—the swim team breakfast and the end of the year banquet.

After each practice this Friday, swimmers will enjoy a swim team breakfast.    Please send in a breakfast food to share for EACH swimmer in your family, which will be shared directly following their swim session.  For example , if you have a swimmer in both the first and second session, please send food to share for both sessions.  Ideas for food can be fruit, pastries, donuts, muffins, or casseroles.  If it requires a serving utensil, please provide.

The end of year banquet will be held on Sunday, August 3rd, the day after finals.  This is a pot luck style banquet, with the swim team providing burgers and hot dogs.  The banquet will start at 5:00pm and includes time for families to swim, eat dinner, elect new board members, and then the presentation of awards for the year. 

We ask that each family bring a dish to share (enough for approximately 15 people), based upon your last name.

A-F,  please bring a dessert

G-K, please bring a pasta or casserole dish (e.g. mac and cheese,  tortellini, etc)

L-Q, please bring a salad (e.g. green, potato, pasta)

R-Z, please bring a fruit dish

Also bring drinks for your family, and if your dish requires a serving utensil, please provide.

We hope you can attend these fun events!   Don’t forget to RSVP with the Banquet Evite you received to let us know if your family will be attending so we can purchase the burgers and hot dogs for the appropriate number of people. 

See you soon!
