CHAMPS PROGRAM

We are all looking forward to a regular Champs this year. With that being said, the league sells programs which contain all of the pre-seeded Heat/Lane Assignments. The program contains a section for each team to encourage our swimmers.

Every family is invited to submit a photo and brief message to include in our team’s section of the program. Please see the pricing below of the sizes we are currently offering:

• 1/8 of a page: $12.50 (send in vertical layout)
• 1/4 of a page: $25.00 (send in either horizontal or vertical layout)
• 1/2 of a page: $50.00 (most commonly used for aging out swimmers - send in horizontal layout)
• Full Page: $100.00 (most commonly used for aging out swimmers)

All photos submitted must be in high resolution for best quality.

While you may not choose to buy a program at Champs, I still strongly encourage you to make an ad. The kids will borrow their friend's program and they all gravitate to see what is written, so, let’s show our swimmers how proud we are of them.

To participate, please send me an email ([email protected]) with a short message and/or a photo (jpeg format in high resolution). I will do the formatting of the pages. The deadline to submit an ad is Friday, June 30, 2023. If you have any other questions, please email me directly at [email protected]. To see a sample of an ad, please see the attached.

Please submit your payments via venmo @Oaktree-Sharks (and please indicate the size you are purchasing).

I will have a copy of a previous program at the computer table on Saturday if you'd like to see one.

Coaches Gifts

As we do each year, we are collecting donations for our award night group gifts. A suggested, but optional, contribution of $50 per swimmer is appreciated for our 4 coaches, Brendon, Cade, Darius and Eric and our 16 junior coaches, Avery, Anna, Alex, Alexa, Aniela, Ashley, Amara, Brianna, Gianni, Joshua, Kaelyn, Lexi, Miles, Niamh, Talya and Thomas. Please send donation to Fiona's Venmo (@FionaEh) by Wednesday June 28^th so we can get everything organized for them.

If your swimmer would also like to make a thank you note to the coaches or jr. coaches please give it to Carrie or put in the Toolson folder by Monday July 10th.
