NCA Families!!
The Boosters would like to thank the seniors & everyone who swam & raised funds in our Swim-a-Thon! About half of NCA’s swimmers have participated so far. Prize winners will be announced at the clinic with our Olympic hopefuls July 12.
The school year of 2007-2008 held some of NCA’s greatest challenges & achievements, building strength & resiliency & creating unexpected financial needs. The Boosters support NCA swimmers at every level year-round & our biggest fund-raiser is the Swim-a-Thon. Our team goal is 100% Swim-a-Thon participation: to reach it, we call upon the other half of the team to jump in, gather donations, & give generously. Swim-a-thon donations are tax deductible!
To take part in the July 12 clinic, a swimmer must simply meet their training level goals by July 9. See your coach to schedule a day to do your laps at practice. Then turn in your donations to your coach.
Training Level Goals
Red, White, Blue Groups $100
Age Group 3 & HS Prep $125
Age Groups 2 & 1 & Sr D $150
Everyone who has turned in donations at their training level goal by July 9 qualifies for a t-shirt signed by our Olympic hopefuls. (If you already picked yours up at the awards program signed by Tanya, Jessie, Anna, & Kendyl, bring it to the clinic to have Gloria & Allie sign it. If you pre-ordered a t-shirt or bought one at the May meet, bring it to the clinic for autographs. If you qualify for a second shirt, think eBay but if you don’t want it, you can donate it to the team or be reimbursed.)
Here’s another way families can support the Boosters and our Olympic hopefuls: Shirts (autographed or not) are $14. If you can’t do Swim-a-thon this year, we strongly urge you to buy a shirt or two.
