Photo Day - Individual Photos - Thursday, June 29
Remember that we will now have the photographer at the pool on Thursday during regular practices to take individual photos. here is 1 form for each swimmer. The photographer requires 1 form for each photo he takes. So, if you have 3 children - you will need 3 forms. You can just write one check though for the total (just write the check number on all 3 forms.) He also accepts credit cards. If you would like a photo of all your children together, you will need to complete another form. If you know that you will not be having your child's photo taken, please put the blank order form in the first folder in front of the coach's folder in the top drawer. If you need another form, you can take one from this folder. Paul will also have extra forms available that day as well. Please arrive prior to your swim time practice (about 15 min or so) to get your pictures taken and not miss practice.
Group photos will take place before the Home Meet against Ephrata on July 11. Any makeup individual photos will occur during this time as well.
Overlook Relay Photos (NEW)
Dave Pidgeon from Creative Sports Photography was at Overlook Relays and took over 3,000 photos during the event. Although he couldn't photograph everyone, he did his best to capture as many swimmers as possible. Dave has put together a gallery of the best photos that are available for purchase (hi-res digital downloads and/or prints) right from the gallery. And you can also make a Favorites List by clicking on the heart icon above every image.
