PCST Weekly Update
What a great way to complete our regular swim season at home! A warm thank you to Coach Frankie, Coach Julianna, Coach Esha and Coach Hazel for guiding our swimmers through a successful season. This impressive PCST team is small but mighty. And, a huge thank you to our volunteers who continue to make all of this happen for our super cute and super accomplished swimmers.
Last Week of Practice!
This upcoming week is the final week of regular practice, Monday through Thursday. Don’t forget the final Speeding Ticket Store will be open on Thursday. Check your family mailboxes for tickets! There’s also an overflowing Lost and Found bin in the team shed. Missing towels, goggles, water bottles - look in the Lost and Found before the end of the week.
