All-

We are excited to kick off our first week of practice in just over a week!

PLEASE READ CAREFULLY - LOTS OF IMPORTANT DETAILS

Tuesday May 27: Swimmer Evaluations: All New to ILBC swimmers (siblings of current swimmers and new swimmers) should have signed up here: New Swimmer Evaluations/for a New Swimmer evaluation. If you have a returning Guppy and are unsure if your child should be a guppy or minnow please sign-up and come Tuesday. High school and USA swimming swimmers do not need an eval- you were notified of groups via email.

Wed-Thurs May 28-29 Practice Starts: First two nights of practice for minnows-sharks (Guppies start when mornings start on June 16th). Note: no Friday evening practices.

MINNOWS: Monday – Thursday 6:00 - 6:30 pm
SUNFISH: Monday – Thursday 6:30 – 7:00 pm
DOLPHINS: Monday – Thursday 7:00 – 7:50 pm
SHARKS: Monday – Thursday 7:50 – 8:40 pm

We understand there are many school events and spring sports over next 10 days. Do you best to make practice when you can.

Reminders:

1.PARKING: Please park up by the tennis courts. Both lower lots need to remain open to ILBC members, staff and handicap families using the property. This is also to keep the kids safe- minimize moving cars around kids!

2. Check-In: When you arrive for evening practices-as you're walking by the gate house- please let the gate guard know you're there for swim team.

3.Parents are NOT allowed on deck. This is dictated by our insurance policy. If you need to speak to our coaches please email them at [email protected] to arrange a time to talk.

4. Wait to enter: Swimmers should remain outside the fence till their practice time and coaches invite them down on deck.

5. Water: They should bring water! We sweat even when we can't feel it in the pool. 

6. Siblings: Any siblings not in practice need to be supervised by parents. We have a lot of water at ILBC and want to ensure the safety of all kids.

7. BEACHES: Beaches are closed during practices except to ILBC members. If your child has dirty feet please make sure they use the hose by the bathrooms to rinse off before practice- sandy feet cause green pools!

8. Dogs: All dogs must be leashed and under adult control at all times. Dogs are not permitted at swim meets.

9. ILBC is a non-smoking property.

10. Please watch your speed on Indian Landing road. With the beautiful weather we have many of our neighbors out walking. Please be respectful of their home and community by honoring speed limits.
