Important meet and other information

Good Afternoon All,
I am just going over some dates for upcoming Ladue Swim Club events and the end of the winter season.
There is swim club tonight (Thursday, February 16th, 2017) at normal times.
Swim club is not scheduled to meet on Saturday, February18th, 2017.
On Thursday, February 23rd we would like to have an inter-squad swim meet.  We would like all age groups to meet at the pool at 6 PM for warm-ups and then we will swim a mock meet in preparation for an upcoming meet with the CSP Tideriders team.  We will start the mock meet at 6:30 PM. Groups will not meet at the normal times.  All groups should meet at 6 PM and we anticipate being finished by about 7:30 PM.  We hope all the swimmers can make it.
On Tuesday, March 7  we will have a meet with the CSP Tideriders team.  The warm-up time for all age groups will be at 5:30 PM.  The meet will begin at 6 PM.  We anticipate the meet taking between 1 and 1.5 hours.  Each swimmer will have the opportunity to swim a race in their age group in each of the four strokes.  It is a fun event and we do not collect times, we just race. 
The last scheduled winter swim club will meet on Saturday, March 11th. 
I plan to open the registration window for the spring swim club on Friday, February 24th. This session will fill very quickly.  The spring swim club will begin on Tuesday, March 28th and run through May 18th.  I will send out additional information about this.
Also, the Ladue Swimming Pool will be closed this summer due to high school renovations and building construction.  Our close date is still to be determined, but we anticipate closing just after school is out this May.

I hope everyone has a nice President's weekend and we'll see you at the pool.
