The Rivercrest Swim Team was formed in May 2007 as a family oriented, developmental, competitive swim team. Our goal is to provide a safe and healthy environment for the children in our community; to enjoy a competitive recreation sport; learn valuable life lessons of sportsmanship and teamwork; enhance personal improvement and team spirit; to have fun and develop a love of swimming.

Riptide Families,

We are swimming against Potomac Crossing on Wednesday.  The meet will begin at 6:00 and we need all swimmers on deck by 5:15.  You can park in the pool parking lot and also park in the Church lot across the street.  There is no parking allowed on the streets.

Jennifer Hepler will be sending out the volunteer schedule later today or tomorrow.  Again, please be sure to check in with her as soon as you get there.  We truly appreciate everyone stepping up and helping out.  It takes a village to run a swim team and we have an awesome village here in Rivercrest!!!  Thank you to everyone!!! 

The entries for what your children are swimming are posted up at our pool, along with results from Lenah Run.

They are calling for a 50% chance afternoon thunderstorms on Wednesday.  Please check email before you leave and we will also call you (using the "One Call Now" service) if it is canceled.  The number will appear as an "877" number.  We will only call if the meet is canceled.

We're looking forward to another GREAT meet.  All of your kids are doing a fantastic job!!!  Ribbons from the last two meets are available at the pool in the ribbon box.  You can get them during practices.

GO RIPTIDE!!!
