LOST AND FOUND (REMINDER - BUT MAYBE NEW FOR SOME OF YOU)
In case you didn't know, the lost and found for Skyline is the bottom right of the tall shelving unit up by the bathrooms. This is where I put everything that was left at last week's CV meet and it's where things get placed after practices, etc. May I highly suggest that you take a peak tomorrow night during the meet because it's getting full, and the pool might empty and take to Goodwill soon.
