If you are wondering what you might need for the first WATER practice (Tues Apr 24):

Swimsuit, fins, goggles, swim cap, towel, water bottle & wear sunscreen!!  Take good care of your equipment and it will last all season long!!

Team swimsuits:  These can be purchased at the new SwimShops on Woodlands Pkwy near WalMart: 9955-F Woodlands Pkwy 77382, 281-298-3255.  These suits are new for the 2012 season.  Please try to have them by time trials / team pictures on May 12

Fins:  This is a MUST!  Your child will be "behind" if he or she doesn't have fins at practice.  You need to get the type that looks like a "shoe."  These can also be purchased at SwimShops or other online resources.

Goggles:  Get a good pair that doesn't leak, and please adjust for your swimmer PRIOR to the first water practice.  Try them out in the bath tub if you want to check for a good fit :)

Swim Cap:  Highly recommended for boys AND girls.  The coaches prefer you wear a red WAVES cap to the swim meets so they can find you in the water easily.  If you don't have one from last year you can purchase one from Cindy at dry land or at the pool during practice.

Looking forward to seeing you at the pool soon!!

GO WAVES!
