GP Swim: Sunnybrook Meet - Senior Send Off & 70's Team Picnic!

This is a big weekend for GP Swimming with our last home meet of the season and our team picnic on Saturday.  This will also be the last home meet for our senior swimmers:  Chris Ale; Lindsey Ale; Brooke Liberto; Mike Mercurio; Julia Pedersen; and Dan Russo. 

All of them are long-time Frogs (collectively they have almost 70 years of Frogs experience!), whose families have contributed a great deal to our team over the years.  At this week's meet, we will celebrate their GP swim careers and wish them all well as they head off to college in the Fall.

Meet vs. Sunnybrook Makos HOME:  Sat. July 13 @ 9am

All swimmers must report for warmups by 7:30am

Don't miss the best sports banquet you'll ever attend!  This is not your typical rubber chicken and talking head (except for me) banquet.  It's run like an award's show and the kids have a great time.  This year the banquet is being held at Paris Caterer's in Blackwood.  The deadline on this event is very strict at the caterer's instruction.  Please get your form from the team bulletin board and submit it to Jenna Buffetta, Katie McAninley or your age group mom by July 15.
