Hi.  There is still time to sign up for swim team!  If you are still interested, please let me know!  If you are not interested, please let me know that and I can remove your name from the distribution list.  If you have some conflicts with other sports, camps, activities, etc. we can always work around that too.  We are in need of more swimmers this year!

You can order suits and apparel here:  http://www.thelifeguardstore.com/teams/category/627-lexington-lakers-swim-team.aspx

We are in need of a concessions coordinator for each home meet.  And we will need help at the Lexington Invitational coordinating concessions, facilities, set-up, bullpen, sponsors, etc.  (Volunteers is Candace, Ribbons/Awards is Gina, T-shirts is Jenn – thanks!)  Please let me know how you can help!  :)

Lexington Lakers Swim Team Registration Information

Lexington Lakers Swim Team

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.

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.

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!

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.

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.

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.

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!

Registration and Swim-Suit Fitting Dates are as follows:

1. Monday, April 26 - 5:30 - 7:00 p.m.
2. Tuesday, April 27 - 3:30 - 5:00 p.m.
At the Lexington Community Center!

If you have any questions, please contact Tammy Baker, Parent Coordinator, at 728-2333 or at baker28@frontiernet.net. Detailed up-to-date information can also be found on the Lexington Lakers Official Website: http://lexingtonlakers.blogspot.com

Lexington Lakers Swim Team Information

Swim Team is right around the corner! Although it’s just now March, there is still plenty to do to get us ready. Here is some information to pass along:

1. Former Lexington Lakers swimmer, Lindsay Duzan will be the head coach this year!!!
2. We are looking into having some optional skill clinics taught by Lindsay this year.
3. You can still sign up for the ISU Swim Camp and/or Clinics https://illinoisstatesportscamps.com/swimming/index.php
4. We are working hard on scheduling our dual-team swim meets for Tuesdays and Thursdays in June and July with nearby towns.
5. We will have new 2-year suits this year. Think bubbles!
6. We are in the process of designing new sweatshirts, t-shirts, and flannel pants through The Lifeguard Store!
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!
8. The El Paso Invitational is June 19 and the Pontiac Pentathlon is June 26.
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!
10. Sign-ups will be in April. More info will come on this as well!

Thanks!

El Paso Invitational 6/21

Hello! I just received information for the El Paso Invitational held on Saturday, 6/21. Sorry for the short notice, but the information was mailed to me on 6/4 and the deadline for entries is 6/13. So, I will need to know the following from each swimmer by Wednesday, 6/11 at 12:00!

1. Will your swimmer attend the meet?
You need to reply if you will NOT attend the meet. The Lexington Park District pays for each swimmer to swim and the cost is $16 for 4 events. If you do not let me know that you are not swimming or if you say you are swimming and do not show up, you will have to pay the $16 to the Park District.

2. Do you want to purchase a t-shirt for $10?
El Paso is offering meet t-shirts for a cost of $10 per swimmer. The Park District does not pay for this. You need to get a check made payable to El Paso Recreation for $10 by Wednesday, 6/11 at 12:00!

3. What time will you volunteer to time a lane? We need a total of 12 timers - 2 each hour:
9:00-10:00, 10:00-11:00, 11:00-end, beginning-2:00, 2:00-3:00, 3:00-4:00
