Big Thank You-
Former Head Coach John Padjen is still helping out the team! This weekend he donated two more stationary bikes to the weight room for us to use (really nice bikes as well, about $1200 total). Thanks so much Padj!

HRHS Memorial-
Our hosted meet is coming up quickly so I wanted to send out a couple of reminders...
First, thank you so much to those who have already volunteered, we can't do this without you!
Second, if you haven't volunteered and would like to please follow this link!
Third, reminder that if you volunteer you get $25 off your booster fee, follow this link to pay your booster fee.
Finally, we will be having our last team dinner the night before hosted by the Gwyn Family. Click here to help out with food! Address- 8335 Harbortown Pl, Lone Tree. Gate Code- #8335

Parent/Coach Social After-
All parents are invited to a parent and coaches social after the meet at On the Rox. This has been a tradition where after the meet parents and coaches can hang out, bet on the Kentucky Derby (Padj won't be in charge of this this year so it can't be rigged) and just relax after our hosted meet and have fun! We hope to see you all there!
