Meet with North Canton – Our meet with North Canton will take place this Saturday, December 17. Be at our pool by noon to warm-up at 12:30. The meet will start at 1:15 p.m. Be sure to sign-up for what items you will be bringing for the concession stand. The list is on the Neptunes’ Info Board. Also, the swim vendor, Knabes, will have a booth set-up at this meet. If you need goggles, caps, fins, or suits, here is your chance to stock-up!
Neptune Christmas Party – Be sure to sign-up on the Neptunes’ Info Board to say you will be attending our Christmas Party, Monday, December 19. We need to know how many people from your family will be in attendance so we have enough food. Speaking of food… you will also need to sign-up on the Neptunes’ Board stating what food item you can bring. And… don’t forget to bring along a new pair of mittens, socks, gloves or a winter hat to add to our Giving Tree. These items will then be passed out to the needy in our community. Please plan to attend this Christmas event! We will have great food, open swim time and fun for all. See you there!
Looking ahead – Please mark your calendars now and set aside the date of Sunday, February 19, 2006 as this is the date of our team’s major fund-raising event, and actually, one of the most anticipated YMCA invitationals in our area – the Y-Neptunes’ Presidential Invitational! Know that all families are required to participate in running this meet. This is our only fundraiser during the season and we need everyone there to help make it a success. All Neptune swimmers should sign-up to participate; you (meaning other family members) will be there anyway, so plan on working! Even if your child decides not to participate, someone from his or her family must take part in making this meet run. If you have any questions about this, please contact Tom Nasci at 330-759-0223 or Melanie Emerson at 330-427-2946. Also, we are encouraging everyone to place or get one ad for our meet program. Promote your business, surprise your swimmer with some encouragement in print, thank someone in a big way – place an ad! We host more than 12 teams from all over the tri-county area as well as teams from the Cleveland area and teams from Pennsylvania. More than 450 swimmers compete at this meet. What a great venue for your advertising dollars! If you are interested in advertising or know someone who would like to place an ad look on your mailbox next week for the ad application.
