2) The January practice calendars are posted online. Please note that there six dates on the Minuteman calendar that we cannot practice due to high school swim meets. Please plan accordingly.
 
3)  Best times as of 12/18/07 are posted. Please review and let Dan know of any incorrect times.
 
4)  CHRISTMAS VACATION TRAINING!!! Swimmers are reminded that the next two weeks of training is vital to their second half of the season. The training we do over the next 10 practices creates the aerobic base needed to perform in late February and March. Senior/ Compass swimmers are expected at all practices. Junior and age group swimmers are expected to keep to their required number of practices.
 
5) Last chance for Christmas gifts!! Anyone who would like NSSC shirts, backpacks, suits, or caps is asked to call Coach Tony before Saturday morning practice at Hanscom.
6) Swimming Special Olympics Volunteers Needed! 
When: 1/6/08, 1/13/08, 1/27/08, 2/3/08, 2/10/08, 2/24/08                    
Where: Acton Boxboro High School 
Time: 1:00 pm- 2:00 pm
How it works: Each volunteer will be assigned one athlete, who they will work with over a span of six Sunday’s to help them become more comfortable in the water.  Depending up the ability, as the volunteer you will be encouraged to teach basic swimming skills.
Expectations:The children that we work with like to be with the same volunteer throughout their experience, so your commitment to the program is important. Please fell free to contact me prior to December 17th    with any further questions and to let me know if you  are interested in volunteering. tarynbrosnan@comcast.net
