Lee’s Hill Lightning Families,
Well – RSL Finals are almost here!
I see that all our Lightning swimmers are practicing hard during this last week.
It should be a very exciting meet! Anything can happen at Finals!
I have been told that we ARE allowed in the gym this year – so remember to bring your chairs, healthy snacks and drinks! The host team will have concessions up and running!
