We are what we
repeatedly do.
EXCELLENCE,
then, is not an act,
but a habit.

Mailboxes
Each swimmer has a folder for a mailbox that
we will be using to send home information,
ribbons and results.
These will be kept in the pool area. It is the
responsibility of the swimmer to check their
mailbox to see if there is anything to take
home. Parents are welcome to come down on
deck and check also if they wish.

All information such as newsletters, meet
notices, etc. Will also be posted on the bulletin
board and most likely posted here on the
website.

You should come try out the Mariner swim team. We are a  competitive swim team that competes with other YMCA teams throughout
the state of Minnesota.  We swim in the summer with several local meets. We also swim from September to March with meets here
in the twin cities as well as some fun meets in other Minnesota cities (Duluth, Winona, Rochester, etc.).
We use the YMCA four core values as our foundation and focus on personal improvement.

You may begin with the team anytime throughout the season.
Try the team
You can try the team for a
week free. You need not be a
member to try the team.

been involved on a swim team

Dear Parents and Swimmers,
      Thank you so much for the extremely generous gift cards.  We are all trying
to figure out the most fun way to use them.  Jessy already knows that it will go a
LONG way towards new Mickey Mouse stuff.    Shelly is browsing the sailing
catalogs for new toys for her sailboat.  Baby Emma quite possibly will be sporting
some cute new summer styles.  Jenny might finally start shopping around for a
good pair of roller-skates and Curtis is keeping his plans a secret.  We truly
enjoy working with all of the kids, and are especially looking forward to working
with everyone in our new facility.  We are busy trying to figure out how we will
use all of our new space and equipment.  Dryland will be bigger, better, and
more exciting than ever.  Coach Jessy can’t wait!!!!
      For those of you that we continue to see at practice – keep up the hard
work, you are almost there.  For those of you that have moved on to other
activities for the spring – keep working hard at whatever you are doing.  Cross-
training is an excellent thing and will help your swimming as well.

                      Thanks again,
                              The Coaches – Shelly, Jessy, Jenny, Erin & Curtis
