Parent Meeting - Monday Feb. 8th

 



On Monday, February 8th the New Wave Swim Club Board of Directors will be hosting an open parent meeting at 6 pm in the UMass Lowell gym (take the stairs up to the bleachers just beyond the pool).  As we enter championships, and wind down the Short Course season, we wanted to offer some time to reflect on the season, the workings of the club and answer any questions you might have.  Here’s a sampling of the topics we could cover, but will let your interest drive the agenda:

 

-           USA Swimming:  what’s cool about being part of this organization?

-           Coaching philosophy:  what is the motivation behind the training workouts?

-           Meet entries:  how do the events get chosen for swimmers?

-           Long Course:  what is it, and how is it different than Short Course?

-           Money matters:  how do I know my tuition money is being wisely spent, and why do I keep getting charged every month for entry fees?

-           Fundraising:  why are there so many fundraisers?

-           Volunteering:  after paying tuition and entry fees, you still want me to donate my time?

-           Meet hosting:  what goes into running a meet like the Nor’Easter?

-           Website:  what can it do for me that I might not know?

 

Refreshments will be provided!  We hope to see you there.
