DCD Upcoming - News & Events

UPCOMING MEETS
Unfortunately, the summer months are rather slow for Swim Meets. Long Course pools are generally fairly distant to us, but here is a list of upcoming meets you can consider:

  1. 1) Tahoe Invitational on July 10-12

  2. 2) Age Group Championships at Independence High School on July 16-19

  3. 3) Zone 1 North A+ Meet in Los Altos on July 24-26

  4. 4) Serra MPM Meet (B Swimmers only) on August 1-2

Try to get to some of the meets when you can, and check your swim guide for more meets and details. Perhaps your family can use your vacation time to plan a trip which will involve a meet which is father away.

From Coach Wales . . .

Summer has begun and thanks to the help of the swimmers and parents, our Pre-Comp Program is off to a great start. We have 53 swimmers in training and 6 new DCD Swimmers.

Mrs. Stember, Mrs. Corbelli, and Mrs. Calvo Y Perez helped with the registration and our awesome swimmers were here at 4:00PM to assist. Welcome back Coach Matt Rippberger, who came to help with the first week of Pre-Comps, and will fill in as needed during summer. Added to the staff this summer will be Kenneth Dolar, helping with the Pre-Comps is Melissa Wales in Catie's and Jose's groups.

The 6:00AM workouts are going well. We have 18 swimmers our first day and 14 the second day. Which is less crowded than our 4:30-6:30PM where we are averaging 75 swimmers per workout.

Congratulations to our 8th Grade graduates: Maria Calvo Y Perez is on to St. Ignatius; Rosa Castellon and Stanley Chen to Westmoor; Marc Soriano is on to Burton, and Justin Vergara will go to Serra.

Thanks to all our parent fund-raising efforts, the Summer Outing will be to Great America this year. A bus will be provided for transportation, but we are not sure of the date yet. Please keep two dates open: July 28th and August 18th. When we finalize the details we will let you know.

"Sports Night" is now moving closer to reality. We are planning a Pizza Party and then a competition between the swimmers vs. parents/coaches. This will be followed by a dance for everybody. See swimmers? We DO listen to you!

Don't forget the Swim Meets coming up: Tahoe Invitational (July 10-11-12); Age Group Championships at Independence High School (July 16-17-18-19); Zone 1 North A+ Meet at Los Altos (July 24-25-26); and ALL B SWIMMERS should go to the Mid Peninsula Mariners Meet at Serra High School (August 1-2).
