sEa lions updatE<br />

You may have noticed that the Sea Lions<br />

hosted their annual <strong>Winter</strong> Cup at the end of<br />

November. As part of Swim Alberta, it is<br />

mandated that we host swim meets for the<br />

Southern Region. Our <strong>Winter</strong> Cup is very well received<br />

through out the swim community and we would like to thank<br />

all members for their patience while the cold pool was closed<br />

for the weekend. We would also like to thank the staff of the<br />

<strong>Club</strong> for their hard work to help make our meets successful.<br />

The biggest thank-you of all, though, must go to our parents.<br />

It takes 180 volunteer positions to run our meet, and Sea Lion<br />

parents fill most of them. Not only are they there during the<br />

meet, but also they take courses on how to run the meets and<br />

prepare weeks ahead to make sure everything goes smoothly.<br />

We will be hosting two other smaller meets this year and will<br />

help the Clippers run their swim meet as well, so the parents<br />

will still have more shifts to do. Swim parents truly are<br />

first-class volunteers!<br />

Our coaches have been training our swimmers hard; the<br />

senior swimmers even swam during their Christmas holidays<br />

and the results of all the hard work have been showing up<br />

in personal bests and the A, B and qualifying times that our<br />

swimmers are getting. Way to go Sea Lions!<br />

sEa spritEs updatE<br />

Sea Sprites are having great success in the<br />

beginning part of the year with 8 top 10<br />

finishes in the first 2 competitions of the<br />

year! A HUGE thank you to all the parents<br />

that volunteered at the November Figures meet. It was a big<br />

success and we couldn’t have done it without you!<br />

Our 13 - 15 team is hard at work preparing for trials for<br />

Alberta <strong>Winter</strong> Games.<br />

Fun was had by all at the Swan and Anchor evening... Our<br />

swimmers and their Dad’s did a great job!!<br />

We’re working hard for a very successful synchro season! Go<br />
