Hi Everyone,
* Below is a list of swimmers who will be out of town for the 4th meet at Ridgetop. If you and/or your swimmer will not be there and you are not on this list, please send me a note tonight.
Sarah Sheppard, Alison, Emily and Brian Walter, Jacob and Oliva Moser
Angela Stephens, Zach Barnard, Maddie McLaren, Ben Ertel.
* Welcome to our two newest Wahoo Mites Claire and Sara Kaskey, and to their parents, Elizabeth and Steve. Glad to have you on the team!
* Good Luck to the Wahoo Dive team tomorrow as they face Ridgetop!
* Renee Boswell needs parent volunteers to work 1/2 shifts in the snack bar on July 4th. Please contact her at krboswell@verizon.net to let her know if you can help out. It would be great to give the kids a day off.
* Here is the promised information from our Monday night hosts at Ridgetop. If you would like to form a parent relay, please send a note to Coach Mike at mmckee11@vt.edu as soon as possible.
Thanks and see you soon,
Cathy Welborn

Hello Woodmont!
--We all look forward to your visit this Monday, June 30th.
--Our address is 901 Ridgetop Rd. directly behind the Village shopping center which is at the intersection of Three Chopt Rd. and Patterson Ave... The phone number is 285-3513.
--Your warm- up is from 6:00-6:15 in our 6 lane 25 meter pool.
--We will dive from the shallow end (4 ft. 6) which exceeds the minimum depth requirement, so the mites in relays may dive as well. The mite events will begin in the deep end.
--We will have 2 coaches and swim reps. parking spots reserved for you.
--Our parking area is somewhat small, so you may be forced to park on Ridgetop Rd. which is adjacent to the pool.
--It is probably a good idea to bring your own chairs as we are limited to the amount that we have. Generally, seating is first come, first served, but usually, visiting teams take the lawn in front of the pavilion to the left.
--Our restrooms are located beside the snack bar and our Clerk of the Course will be in the baby pool area.
--We are lucky to have Quizno’s serving up some yummy sandwiches in the pavilion which are $4.50 not including chips and drinks. We will also have our snack bar open which offers many treats to energize the swimmers.
--You are welcome to join in on our “bring a canned good” theme which will be donated to the food bank.
--Also, if willing, we are always game for a parent’s relay. Let us know your thoughts.
I think that sums it up. Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns!

Thank you swimmers, coaches and parents for making our first home swim meet a huge success. We haven't hosted a team that large in years, but it went as smoothly as if we had been doing it all along. Everything seemed to be on our side, including the weather!
Special thanks to Tom Kruse who graciously took a training course to be re-certified as our Starter. Tom, just like always, you kept that meet running like a clock. We were out of there in record time for a meet that large. Thank you!
And to Melissa Kerby, who came back to help out at the head table---thank you! It is always a huge comfort to have an old pro sitting right beside you during the first home meet of a season.
Jim & Lisa (and the hospitality team)--the food and service was amazing! Many thanks to Jo McCurry who has come back twice this year to help us handle the money at both the rummage sale and at our first home meet.
Most importantly...Way to Go Wahoo Swimmers! You looked so good in the water. Everyone is improving. The official results of Monday's meet have not yet been posted to the JRAC site, www.jracsummerswim.org. It should be up by tomorrow.
Stay tuned for more info regarding next Monday's away meet at Ridgetop.
Thanks again,
Cathy & Tracey Welborn

Hello Everyone,
Well, it's looking like Mother Nature is going to try and make our meet eventful (again) tomorrow night.
If a meet is delayed due to the weather, the minimum delay for determining whether a meet shall be conducted is one hour from the scheduled start of the meet (no meet cancellations prior to 7:30 with a 6:30 start time). When a meet has already started, the minimum delay in determining whether a meet shall continue is one hour from the stoppage of competition. It is perfectly acceptable to wait longer than one hour. If it is at all possible, we will try to get the meet finished on that night.
If there is thunder or lightning, everyone must clear the pool deck and take cover either in the upstairs recreation hall or in cars. Our pool policy is to wait 20 minutes from the last sound of thunder. Please do not leave the meet until an official call has been made.
And now... cross your fingers for good weather!
See you tomorrow,
Cathy Welborn

HELLO WAHOOS!
SECOND MEET RESULTS :
As many of you may know by now, there was a mistake made at the second meet with Lakeside. When reading the final score, the Lakeside official accidentally transposed the final score numbers. I had already sent out the email to you before they opposing team even caught their own mistake. This was disappointing, but we still had some terrific wins and will, as you know, meet them again for our very last meet!
Quadruple Event Winners were:
Evan Michael Fisk, Sam Welborn, Danny Welborn
Triple Event Winners were:
Andrew Garofolo, Meg Anderson, Shauna Dunn, Angela Stevens and Mac Dooley.
DIVE RESULTS :
Our Dive Team had a great first meet last Thursday. Congrats to Coaches Sarah and Ruthie and to all of our divers.
The final Meet score was Woodmont 90, Three Chopt 95.
Ribbon Winners were:
Mite Girl Novice: Second Place- Lara Park, Third Place-- Madeline Reagan
Mite Girl Regular: First Place- Meagan Jones
Midget Girl Novice: First Place- Natalie Huesman
Midget Boy Novice: First Place- Ben Ertel
Midget Boy Novice: Second Place- Chris Alley
Junior Girl Novice : First Place- Bridget Dunn
Junior Boy Novice: Third Place-Caston Swedenborg
Junior Boy Regular: Second Place-Michael Dunn
Junior Boy X: First Place- Sam Welborn
Senior Girl Regular: Second Place- Ruthie Grimsdale
FIRST HOME MEET AGAINST WALTON PARK
As you all know, the first home meet will take place this Monday, June 23rd. This is going to be a big one! The opposing team has approximately 200 swimmers, so we will need everyone's help to run an efficient meet. Please let us know, if you haven't already, if you or your swimmer will not be in attendance, especially if you see your name on the below worker schedule. Kelly Fisk posted the event sheets at the pool today.
Again, we are asking all Woodmont parents to park in the lower lot near the basketball courts as a courtesy to our guests. If you can, carpool.
The Ertels are heading up hospitality. If you are not scheduled for a spot and can help out in this area, we would greatly appreciate it. Baked goods are a great way to earn a bit more money for our team. If you have the time and can whip up some cookies or trail mix, we know it will go.
Thank you for all that you do -- we may be the smallest team in this division, but we can definitely stand proud when it comes to being great hosts and sportsmen and women.
See you Monday evening!
