The HURRICANES home is our south pool is located in Forest Lakes South community at 1650 Ashwood Boulevard. The pool and club house is about 1 mile off of 29N after you turn onto Ashwood Blvd.
Our parking situation will be crowded. We welcome you to park in the paved parking areas around our pool. We will be reserving the front parking spaces along the front of the club house for drop off. There are a number of handicapped parking spots in front also, if you have any families in need of them. If you are parking on the street please park all vehicles on the grass, perpendicular to Ashwood Blvd., off of the main road. Our community association asks that you do not park on nearby Powell Creek Drive, or in the nearby Empress Place or Thornridge neighborhoods, or block any driveways or fire hydrants.
While you are at our meet we invite you to partake of our team concessions. We offer a variety of hot foods from local business including Baja Bean, Oriental Express, 2 businesses owned and operated by 2 of our swim team families. We will also have pizza from END ZONE. At our outside booth we offer snow cones, water, sodas, G2 and a selection of candy and other snacks.
It will be cool Wednesday evening. Be sure to bring warm things (sweatshirts, sweatpants) for your swimmers and several towels so they can stay warm. Of course, everyone needs to remember their GOGGLES and swimcaps.
The JSL is piloting a change in the event order: the breaststroke and butterfly events have been switched. HOWEVER THE NUMBER HAS NOT. This means that the events will be out of numerical order. Parents, help your swimmers pay attention to the events being called Swimmers, LISTEN carefully!!
The silicone swim caps are now available for purchase. Look for them at the practices. Thank Leah Fodori for her hard work in obtaining and selling them for us.
If you are a team parent with desktop publishing experience, we could use your help getting our Champs Heatsheet ads up to snuff. If you have these skills and some time in July, please email swordfishswimteam@gmail.com
Thanks everyone. GO SWORDFISH!!!
