Cary City Meet Team Spirit Costume Ideas

Don't forgot to start thinking about costumes for the Cary City Meet if you signed up to attend! Our team theme this year is Toy Story. Below are a couple of websites with cute costumes ideas! These are optional of course, but the kids always love dressing up as our theme!

Easy DIY Toy Story Costumes - The Chirping Moms

Toy Story Inspired Forky Costume - Desert Chica

Coaches Gifts

We love to thank our coaches at the end of the season for all their hard work with gift cards! If you would like to contribute, you can either donate money, gift cards or homemade cards by giving them to Ashley and Tami or the pool manager on duty (they will have a folder in the office). Deadline for contributions is July 20th.

Pictures for End of Year Slideshow

We are already working on gathering pictures for our end of the season slideshow. As you take pictures of your swimmer and Sea Lion events, please email pictures to Kristen at [email protected]. You can also share a digital album with her at that address.

Meet Declaration for 7/12 AWAY meet:

Please declare your swimmer for the swim meet by 11:59 pm tonight, 7/10.

Follow these instructions to declare if your swimmer will swim:

1. Log into your family account at shrcsealions.swimtopia.com.

2. Go to Meets & Events > Sign Up Calendar

3. Click on the green button with a "?" mark that says Meet Entry Open.

4. Under each swimmer click on the drop-down box that says "undeclared" and choose "attending this meet" or "not attending this meet". You will also be asked about relays for each swimmer. Relays occur at the beginning and the end of the meet.

Any changes after 12am on Monday need to be sent to [email protected] and [email protected]. Relays are very important to signup for correctly. Dropping out or signing up incorrectly for relays causes a major challenge for our coaches to find replacements at the last minute. While we understand sickness and injuries happen when least expected, the sooner you can let us know of any changes the better!

Arf! Arf!
