NYAC Newsletter October 2007 Welcome to all returning and new NYAC members and parents! It was great to have seen so many familiar and new faces on our Equipment Day and swim practices. Now that the swimmers are in the water, pool reps will meet and contact everyone. Your pool rep is your resource; he/she is your information link to NYAC and the source of communication to/from the club. He/she may coordinate events for your group and help coaches liaise with parents. The following is a list of this year's pool reps:
Should you have any questions about your child's program, you first and most important contact is his or her coach. Any further concerns may be addressed to Marjie Chud, President and Diane Peirce, Vice President for NYAC. Please be aware of several upcoming events. In order for NYAC to run successful meets, we require volunteers to officiate (i.e. timers, stroke and turn judges, clerks, etc.). There will be an official's timer and strokes and turns clinic on Saturday October 20 from 7 to 9 am at Douglas Snow. At least one adult in each family must have timer and strokes and turns qualifications. Friday November 16, 2006 will be our fun-filled annual banquet. Every swimmer will receive one ticket as part of their membership fees. We encourage all family members to attend (swimmers under 12 must be accompanied by an adult). Tickets may be purchased from your pool reps in the near future. The banquet will be a great opportunity to meet new members and renew old friendships. Finally, there will be an excellent opportunity for you to quickly earn back some of your fundraising commitment while simultaneously helps our club. You simply need to purchase Loblaws gifts cards, which may be used as cash at any Loblaws, No Frills, Valu-Mart, etc. They may be ordered by contacting Vivian Hu . Three percent of each dollar spent goes directly to your swimmer's account up to $250, the remaining being split with NYAC. This year NYAC also has an initiative called the Shop and Support program, very similar to the Loblaws card idea. For further details, please contact our fundraising director Cheryl Kicksee or check our website. Understanding that the above information may be a bit overwhelming, I encourage you to visit the NYAC website (www.nyac.on.ca) on a regular basis where you will find details about these events, meet, group schedules and other information. Your pool reps are your great resource! Looking
forward to an exciting swim year, |
