Dear FISH Families --

If you have photos you would like to share with us, we would love to receive them. We are planning to add more pictures to our website about our swimmers. We are also planning to compile a video for our next Back-To-Pool Night in 2009. Any special moments on deck, during practice or at meets, off deck, moments of winning, moments of not doing so well, moments of starting, moments of turning at the wall, moments of touching the wall at the end of a race? Swimmers interacting with their coaches, swimmers participating in dryland routines,swimmers participating in meets, swimmers participating in social activities....I am looking forward to receiving your photos.

Please send me your special moments via email in a jpg format.

Thank you,

Monika Paris

Team Manager

When Coach Norm and I dropped them off at the airport Wednesday afternoon, we both had the impression that all 15 German guests were happy. They were appreciative of the two weeks they had spent with us and they are looking forward to welcoming us "on their turf."
