<br />
Team Pictures: Thursday, June 24th at 5:00!<br />
<br />
Volunteers: Each parent needs to volunteer at least 2x per swimmer at the home swim meets. Once you volunteer, you will receive your deposit check back! We still need a volunteer to coordinate the volunteers! <br />
<br />
Absences: Can you please respond with any dates you know in advance that your swimmer cannot attend.<br />
<br />
Concession Sign-Ups: Laura Williamson is in charge of this (thanks, Laura!) There will be a concession sign-up sheet coming soon! We are looking for parents to donate food, puppy chow, snacks, treats, etc. for each home meet! This is optional!<br />
<br />
Clinics: Look for more information to come…but we are looking at having Monday evening clinics from 6:00 p.m. – 7:00 p.m. for a limited number of swimmers on a first-come, first-serve basis to learn/improve on different strokes each week!<br />
<br />
Practice Start Date: We are hoping to start on Tuesday, June 1! We will keep you posted on the progress of the pool opening over Memorial Day Weekend! <br />
<br />
Volleyball Camp: The girls attending volleyball camp from 7:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. June 1-4, will attend swim practice on June 1, 2, and 3 from 6:00 p.m. – 7:00 pm.<br />
<br />
Practice Schedule: This year we are in a unique situation. Lindsay Duzan is our head coach, but she also has a day-time job. She works on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. We also have Rebecca Silver as our assistant coach. Lindsay has changed her work schedule to start work at 10:00 a.m. on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. With Lindsay’s work schedule, we divided up the practices into two practices times (instead of three) and put the practices at an earlier start time.<br />
<br />
We will have the younger/less experienced swimmers practice from 8:00 a.m. – 9:00 a.m. and the older/more experienced swimmers practice from 9:00 a.m. – 10:00 a.m. Lindsay will be available the entire practice times on Tuesday and Thursday and will have to leave at 9:30 a.m. on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Having the younger swimmers earlier ensures that they receive instruction from two coaches the entire practice time every day of the week The older swimmers will get 30 minutes with two coaches, and the last 30 minutes with one coach (3 days a week).<br />
<br />
We feel this is the safest way to divide up our swim practices. We divided the groups as evenly as we could. We also factored in swimmers times from last year, swimmers ages, and tried to put siblings together (where applicable). Please let us know if you have questions!T.

<br />
Lexington is proud to be the home of the Lexington Lakers Swim Team. The Lexington Lakers Swim Team is a traveling swim team that participates in swim meets in June and July on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays. Although Lexington is a small town, we have a large and dedicated swim team with 70-80 swimmers participating each year. We swim against teams from Bloomington, Clifton, Colfax, Dwight, El Paso, Fairbury, Flanagan, Gridley, Metamora, Olympia, Pontiac, Roanoke, Streator, and Washington.<br />
<br />
This year, our 4th Annual Lexington Invitational will be held on Saturday, July 10, 2010. We have a great group of swim team parents that volunteer to make this swim meet the best Invitational held the entire summer! Since Lexington has taken over this Invitational 4 years ago, we have received numerous compliments and praises on this all-day swim meet. <br />
<br />
Our swim coach for the past many years, Clif Morlan, will again be in Ireland this summer. Our assistant coach and past Lexington Lakers swimmer and Pontiac High School Co-Op Swimmer, Lindsay Duzan will be our Head Coach this summer!<br />
<br />
The cost for swim team is only $35 per swimmer! The price has not increased in many years and is well below the price charged by surrounding towns. This price includes coaching, pool usage, and costs for participating in all Invitationals. With this low price, we also ask for a $35 deposit check per swimmer which is refunded after a parent volunteers at a swim meet 2x per swimmer during the regular season. Each home swim meet takes approximately 25 volunteers to ensure the swim meet runs smoothly. Each away meet is where the parents can sit back and relax and cheer for the team! Parents are also asked to volunteer at the Lexington Invitational.<br />
<br />
This year we are offering an optional co-op with Bloomington Parks and Rec which will allow us to swim in two swim meets in Bloomington-Normal and participate in the Twin Cities Swim Conference (TCSC). The cost for this is an additional $10 per swimmer.<br />
<br />
Practices will begin as soon as the pool is open! Keep your fingers crossed for good weather! Practice times are normally during the morning hours each day (including days of meets) and will run through July 23 (July 9 for those not participating in the optional Bloomington Co-Op). Practice times will be determined based on the numbers and ages of all swimmers. More information on practices will be forthcoming.<br />
<br />
We need swimmers of all ages: Kindergarten to age 18! To be a member of the swim team, participants must be able to swim a full length of the pool (25 yards) without stopping. The age group for each swimmer is based on their age as of June 1, 2010. Age groups are: 6&Under and/or 8&Under, 9-10, 11-12, 13-14, and 15&Up. We especially need boy swimmers and high school swimmers. We can work with you to accommodate your work schedule, vacation schedule, and/or baseball/softball schedule. Swim Team is a fun way to condition and cross-train for other sports!<br />
<br />
Registration and Swim-Suit Fitting Dates are as follows:<br />
<br />
1. Monday, April 26 - 5:30 - 7:00 p.m.<br />
2. Tuesday, April 27 - 3:30 - 5:00 p.m.<br />

Although it’s just now March, there is still plenty to do to get us ready. Here is some information to pass along:<br /><br />1. Former Lexington Lakers swimmer, Lindsay Duzan will be the head coach this year!!!<br />2. We are looking into having some optional skill clinics taught by Lindsay this year.<br />3. You can still sign up for the ISU Swim Camp and/or Clinics <a href="https://illinoisstatesportscamps.com/swimming/index.php">https://illinoisstatesportscamps.com/swimming/index.php</a><br />4. We are working hard on scheduling our dual-team swim meets for Tuesdays and Thursdays in June and July with nearby towns.<br />5. We will have new 2-year suits this year. Think bubbles!<br />6. We are in the process of designing new sweatshirts, t-shirts, and flannel pants through The Lifeguard Store!<br />7. Mark your calendars for the 4th Annual 2010 Lexington Invitational on Saturday, July 10, 2010. We will need as many swimmers and parents and volunteers at this meet as possible to continue making it a successful meet and a major source of income for our swim team which helps to keep our registration costs low!<br />8. The El Paso Invitational is June 19 and the Pontiac Pentathlon is June 26.<br />9. We are working on an optional co-op with Bloomington Parks and Rec giving those swimmers who want “a little extra” the chance to swim 2 additional meets with Bloomington and the ability to swim in the ‘famous’ TCSC (Twin Cities Swim Conference) “B” Meet and “Championship” Meet on July 17 and July 24 respectively. More info will come on this exciting opportunity!<br />10. Sign-ups will be in April. More info will come on this as well!<br /><br />Thanks!T.

This year, the Lexington Lakers Swim Team is offering a chance to swim in a ‘big meet’ in Peoria to end our season! This meet is on Saturday, July 18, 2009 and is optional for all swimmers. One of the interesting aspects of this meet is that you swim your age and not your age group. For example, all 9 year olds swim and score against 9 year olds, not 9 and 10 year olds, etc. However 13-14 and 15&Up are still combined. Last year, there were 18 teams at this meet, including some teams we have previously competed against such as Greater Peoria YMCA, Morton, Washington, etc. You can view last year’s results and see how your swimmers times compare here: <a href="http://www.paww.org/pjstar08full.htm">http://www.paww.org/pjstar08full.htm</a> More information is on the Peoria website here: <a href="http://www.teamunify.com/EventShow.jsp?returnPage=%2FEventsCurrent.jsp&id=20422&team=ispaww">http://www.teamunify.com/EventShow.jsp?returnPage=%2FEventsCurrent.jsp&id=20422&team=ispaww</a><br /><br /><span style="color:#330099;"><strong>If you are interested in swimming in this meet, please let Tammy or Katie know by Tuesday, June 30.</strong></span> We have to send the entries and money in July 3. If you are interested, you are responsible for paying the entry fee of $15 for this meet. We would like to take as many swimmers as possible, but understand that costs, distance, ability, etc. might affect your decision.

Talk to Katie prior to switching time slots. </li><li>With three practices, each lane will have only 3-4 swimmers which will provide better instruction and more time doing stroke work.</li></ul><p>If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Summer is almost here - our first practice/fun meet is only 25 days away!<br /><ul><li>Please let me know if you would like to receive this email at a different email address or at an additional email address or if you are not swimming this year.</li><li>If you know of anyone (especially high school age and boys) interested in swimming, please let me know. We are very flexible if you will be traveling or playing other sports. We just ask that you try to attend as many practices and meets as you can! </li><li>The pool is scheduled to open June 6. We would like to start practice earlier in that week on June 3, 4, or 5. We will keep you posted. </li><li>We are still looking at how to divide up the practice times, but it looks like it will be similar to the following: </li><li>9:30-10:15 - middle and experienced group </li><li>10:15-11:00 - young and/or 1st year group </li><li>11:00-12:00 - oldest and most experienced group</li><li>If your child is in a school sports camp, VBS, etc., it is ok to attend a different practice time or come for part of a practice that week. We will NOT be able to adjust practice times to accommodate other activities. </li><li>New this year - we will plan to meet at the pool for away meets so that we can carpool and make sure everyone has a ride. More info to come! </li><li>I have attached a copy of the roster (what we have so far) for you to review if you are in need of a carpool, ride, summer sitter, etc. Please don't share this information. It is strictly for swim team use. </li><li>Please review the roster for accuracy and send me any corrections!</li></ul><p>The following are swimmers that I think might be possibly swimming (it's not too late!)
