Practice starts on January 3rd

Getting ready for the winter session is not easy on parents or swimmers. Parents have to line up carpool duties, remember where the pool is, and sort through swimbags to find half-eaten granola bars and mildewy swim caps. Swimmers have to shake off a month of lethargy, hope that they haven't outgrown swimsuits with a growth spurt, and remember all of their teammates' names.

And both have to wonder where all those goggles went. Luckily, Rob over at RobAquatics knows:


The Goggle Monster got them. We all know kids grab the wrong parkas all the time; that is their fault. Goggles? A whole other story...one that involves a creepy sinister force that will cause nightmares on the brightest of days.

For this reason, as the new session approaches, I encourage all of you to visit our locally affiliated online swimshop and buy goggles. Lots of them.
