MorningView wins against Chateau Elan - Monday, June 30, 2008
MorningView wins against a strong Chateau Elan team in a very close meet. 
Score 712.5 to 640.5 Thank you to all of our wonderful volunteers.
 
Next meet is this Tuesday, July 1st at Hamilton Mill. Swimmers should arrive by 5:15, warm-up is 5:30.  All first shift volunteers sign in before 5:30.
 
A note from Hamilton Mill: For overflow parking- go right back out of the lot...straight through the 4-way stop and you'll see the right-hand lane of Hamilton Mill Parkway (the opposite direction from where you came) coned off.  The right lane (closest to the curb) is where you can park. The police officer who patrols our lot is very grumpy and will ask for cars illegally parked to be moved or they'll be towed.
 
Bullpen: All of our swimmers will be inside the fence sharing the drained kiddie pool area with Hamilton Mill’s swimmers. Please remind your children to clean up after themselves so we leave their pool as we found it.
Concessions: Chick-Fil-A sandwiches, pizza, nachos, corn dogs, and
candy, drinks, etc.
 
Go Manta Rays….. Swim Fast and Have Fun!

Welcome to the 2008 Swim Season - Wednesday, March 19, 2008
Welcome to the 2008 summer swim season! Practices will begin after school on Monday, May 12th for Manta Rays. Please check this website regularly over the season for updates. You will find information such as practice schedules, meet schedules and directions, meet results, and sponsorship information. New families will want to check out our Parent Handbook; a link is on the home page. 
 
Please take a moment to read the sponsor info, print out the forms, and ask around at local business.   Our team depends on sponsor income to fund some of the team events, like the end-of-season party, fun Friday practice snacks, and more. Anyone who brings in sponsor money will get 10% of the money back as a sponsor rebate.
 
If you have friends who are interested in joining the team we will continue to take registrations up until April 21st. Age groups that are full include 7-8 boys and girls, 11-12 boys and girls, and Mini Mantas. Mini Mantas do not begin practices until May 27th. Coach Kim will be contacting the Mini Manta families with schedules and information. Coach Kim’s email is kah1996@bellsouth.net.
 
We are using the same team swimsuit as last summer, but if you are new to the team, or your child needs a new suit, call Kast-A-Way at the Sugarloaf Swim Atlanta (770-338-1488). The purchase of a team swimsuit is always optional.   Team apparel will be for sale in the near future. Details will be posted on our website.
