Happy Friday, FAST swimmers and families!

• This is your final reminder to sign up for Monday night's AWAY meet against Oakwood.  Here's the sign-up link: FAST vs Oakwood - June 22, 2026.  The address is 3409 Rivermont Ave, Lynchburg, VA 24503.  Even if you are unable to attend, please mark your swimmer as "Not attending this meet."
  • As usual, don't delay signing up!  If you do not sign up by the deadline (midnight TONIGHT), you will not be able to swim.
  • Also, as mentioned in Wednesday's update email, feel free to sign up for future meets/events!
• We are currently in desperate need of Lane Timers for Monday's meet.  There are also three "Line Up Parent" slots that need to be filled. If you have never been a lane timer before, it is very easy to learn and a lot of fun! There's always a training session for newbies before each meet. You can sign up for a volunteer position here:  FAST vs Oakwood - June 22, 2026 Job Assignments.
• Help out our volunteer coordinator, and sign up now to volunteer for the June 29 meet!  Marianne and her family will be out of town for a mini vacation June 24-28.  Please help her out by signing up now to volunteer for the June 29 HOME meet against Hill City (the largest team in our league, so we need all hands on deck!), so that she can get everything coordinated before the vacation.  You can sign up to volunteer for that meet here:  FAST vs Hillcity - June 29, 2026 Job Assignments.
• RSVP for the team bonfire:  TOMORROW night, 7:30-9:30pm, at the Rolf home (112 Merrywood Dr. in Forest).  All parents, coaches and swimmers are invited, including Junior Makos! Bring graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallows plus any other gourmet things you like on your s’mores. Bring extra backyard games if you prefer. (Pickleball won’t be available unless someone brings their net and gear. Theirs had to be retired to the dump). Come get to know the team, coaches and their families a little better! And help the Rolfs burn through their winter stick piles!  We hope to see you there!
• Team Breakfast:  Sign ups are still open for the team breakfast on Monday morning.  The entire team is invited, including Junior Makos!  Please help out if you are able!
  • Meet Day Breakfast #3 Muffin Bar RSVP
  • Meet Day Breakfast #3 Muffin Bar - Sign Up for Items to Bring
• Swim-a-Thon reminder: See the email from Danielle Parker on 6/14 regarding our Swim-a-Thon fundraiser! Please encourage your swimmer to participate. Funds raised will help purchase much-needed equipment and improvements for our team, including new lane ropes and lane rope covers.

Have a great weekend, and GO FAST!
