Hi, 

Thank you all for a great swim meet yesterday! Race results are posted to the left of the boys bathroom. They are also uploaded on Swimtopia and will show up under your swimmer's name, as well as whole team results posted under the swim meet results tab.

• 6/8 Picture day 10:30-12:00

• 6/8 Tie Dye- bring your own shirt, make sure your name is in sharpie on the inside. Give to the volunteers BEFORE practice. You will do the tie dye AFTER your practice.

• 6/8- Improved Time lollipops- We have a tradition at Oaktree that when the swimmers pick up their ribbons on Mondays after a meet, they will get a lollipop for every improved time. Remember our league not only counts top finishers for points, but EVERY improved time gains our teams points! If you are interested in knowing the scoring for a meet it is explained on our website under the scoring description tab. Lollipops and ribbons will be picked up AFTER swimmers' practice on Monday.
