Frogs, Families & Friends,
Congratulations to all Frogs on yesterday's meet. Yes, we lost but there were many good swims and the team spirit was great. Erlton is a very strong team and will contend for the division championship so no one should feel discouraged.
This week marks our first full week with a Wed. night meet and a Saturday meet.
Please see below for information about this week's meets and other upcoming team activities.
REMINDER: If you need to reach Coach Jen, please email her at coachjencarullo@gmail.com.
- Wednesday June 28 6:00pm - Meet @ Wenonah Wave Runners - AWAY
This should be a fun meet against some of our friends from Wenonah, which is the host of this year's TriCo Championships. Coaches will be talking to swimmers about the events in which they wish to participate.
All swimmers must be at Wenonah by 5:00pm. There is NO team caravan. All swimmers and coaches will meet in the Wenonah parking lot and enter as a team. Directions and team volunteer list is attached.
NOTE: It's often harder to find volunteers for Wed. night meets because parents work, etc. I listed those who have volunteered in the past as well as those who filled out the volunteer form at signups. If you can't volunteer I understand, just let me know. I may have to pull a few people out of the stands to help out.
- Friday June 30 6:00pm - Pep Rally - Italian Night!
Italian Night - always one of everyone's favorites! Dont miss it!
Look for Signup Genius to come out shortly.
- Saturday July 1 9:00am - Meet vs Sunnybrook Makos - HOME
First home meet of the season. Sunnybrook lost its first meet to Old Orchard 331 to 223. However, they are the team that just moved down from A Division, so this one could be an interesting meet.
All swimmers must report to GP by 7:30am. Please see the attached volunteer list.
As usual, we will set up for the meet on Friday night after the pep rally. If you're interested in helping, just stick around.
Thank you volunteers!

- Sat.- Sun. August 5-6 - Tri-County Swim Championships
The meet is hosted by Wenonah this year. To help with security, Wenonah is looking for volunteer members of law enforcement with arrest authority in the State of NJ. If you or someone you know are interested in being security staff supplements, please let me know (and provide an email and phone number) and I will provide your name to Wenonah. Volunteers will be contacted to attend a special meeting for training, and will receive a special wristband to give them access to all areas of the club and they will enter for free.
GO FROGS!
