B MEET WRAP UP

We had 76 swimmers participate in last night’s meet! Amazing! Congratulations to Kyle Matheus, Charlie Eaton and the Torres Family for winning the spirit awards.

On a more serious note, the team area was left with a significant amount of trash after last night’s meet. Please ensure you clean up your space before leaving. Keeping our pool deck tidy is a shared responsibility, and we appreciate everyone doing their part so the clean-up crew and board don't have to manage the extra work. Thank you for helping keep our pool clean!

TEAM PICTURE DETAILS

Our team picture will be taken on Wednesday, July 1 at 8 AM. This is a team fundraiser, so your support is greatly appreciated. We would love for the entire team to take part in this annual tradition - AM practice group, PM practice group and pre teamers all together! We hope with the early time this will allow swimmers who attend PM practice and/or have camps to come for the picture and then go about their day.

We ask that all swimmers wear their 2026 Lake Marion t-shirt for the team picture. If you have not yet received your t-shirt, they will be available on deck the morning of pictures. If you don’t have a team shirt from this year, please wear a plain white shirt.

Following the team photo, we will have a special practice schedule:

Combined AM Groups: 8:30 AM – 9:45 AM
Pre-Team: 8:30 AM – 9:15 AM
CITs: 9:15 AM – 9:45 AM (to assist with Pre-Team)

We will take the team picture first and then take individual pictures for those who would like them. We hope the whole process will take around an hour, and those taking individual pictures will join in practice once they have finished taking their picture. We understand that it takes some time to line everyone up and get the best shot, so we will do our best to stick to this timeline…fingers crossed!

Families can purchase the team picture and additional portraits of their swimmers. Karrie Shuttles, a LMST graduated parent, has volunteered to take the photos and wanted to let you know that she's not a professional photographer, just a photography enthusiast!
