The big week is finally here! Because we are this year's host, we have talked a lot about the planning/management of the Peach Bowl and little about the meet itself.
The fact is that this may be the most exciting meet of the year. Some think that it is more exciting than our league championships. This meet is for county bragging rights and a little friendly (and some times not so friendly) competition between teams and swimmers, who in many cases, known each other well. The meet is very crowded and the noise can be deafening. The kids absolutely love swimming in and cheering at this meet. This year we have several new Frogs competing for the first time, so it should be a very exciting meet for them.
Congratulations and good luck to all Frogs.
Thank you to all who helped plan and raise money for the meet.
Please see meet logistical info below, as well as other important info.
GO FROGS!
