A small donation will be taken with all proceeds going to Jim Young Gun Fund.  MAC swimmers and guests are welcome.  Please RSVP to: twelsh217@gmail.com The address is:  1411 Shady Crest, Hartland, MI.  Don’t miss this great event!

 

From the Coaches:

Dianne: You’ll see some increases in yardage this week as well as continuing to work on freestyle technique and floating along with backstroke floating. See you then!

On a Personal Note: On Wednesday June 20, at 6:00pm come and meet at Barb’s house (address to come) and help her and her family prepare the farm for the summer. Kris and Irene have arranged for us to help out with some much needed chores around the farm. The plan is to help weed around the house for a while and then head over to Baker’s for dinner. All interested can bring their gloves and weeding tools and show Barb and her family that we are with them and are MAC Strong. Address details to come!
