2013 Ridgewood Suit Order Form
Ridgewood Open House
You are invited to the Ridgewood Pool suit fitting party held at Simply Swimming on Thursday, April 18th, 2013 from 4:00 – 7:30 pm. You may order your child’s suit and enjoy refreshments. Please note: Because of manufacturer limitations on the number of suits made, the sooner your purchase your suit the better. Suits may still be available later, but we cannot guarantee availability if you order after the Open House. We will send an email to all members when suits are available for purchase at Simply Swimming.
Ridgewood’s Stroke Clinic
Our annual Stroke Clinic will be offered again in 2013 for swimmers ages 9 to 14. This 8-day clinic running Tuesday, May 28th through Thursday, June 6th, gives swimmers an opportunity to improve their stroke skills as well as practice starts and turns in preparation for the summer swim season. It’s a bargain at just $15 for Ridgewood members. Swimmers 10 and under swim 5:00 to 6:00 pm.; 11 to 14 year olds swim 6:00 to 7:00 pm. See the enclosed information for details.
Early Season/Late Day Team Practice
Swim/Dive team practice will be held June 10-13, 2013 both in the morning and at night to accommodate those still in school. Anyone wishing to participate in the first meet on June 15th should plan to attend.
Added practice times will be available for those swimmers who are in age groups with more people than what is comfortable for each lane to handle. This practice time will take place from 3:00 to 4:15 pm on Monday, 3:00 to 4:30 pm on Wednesday, and 7:30 to 8:45 pm Tuesday and Thursday. Coaches will determine eligible swimmers. Adult lap swimmers will still have lanes available at that time.
Home Swim & Dive Meet Volunteers
Ridgewood hosts four home meets this season. Parents of all swim team members are required to work in some capacity for at least 3 half-meet sessions, or pay an additional Service Requirement fee of $125. Dive Team families must work at one Dive Meet. There are a variety of job opportunities. The Service Requirement fee rule will be enforced, but we’d rather have your help than your money!
