Hello Tuckahoe Swim Team Families,

What a gorgeous week to be a Tiger, isn’t it?!!

The countdown is on: our Black & Gold Time Trials are only 10 days away, and we cannot wait to see our Tigers back on deck, back in the lanes, and back together for another exciting season of great swimming!

Black & Gold is our first and largest internal swimming event of the summer, and it is always a great morning of team spirit, cheering, and Tuckahoe energy. Let’s get ready!

Black & Gold — Saturday, June 13, 8:30 a.m.

More details will be coming soon, but please mark your calendars now and plan for an exciting morning at the pool. (Little Tigers do not swim at Black & Gold, but are most welcome to join in the energy with the team!)

SUPER IMPORTANT: Meet Availability Form

For your swimmers to participate in the Black & Gold, you have to complete the Meet Availability Form by June 4: https://forms.gle/hYsQKtYDQLx9FtAZ7

Practice Reminder

Daily afternoon practices continue until June 18. After that, we will switch to our morning practice schedule starting on Juneteenth.

Volunteer Signup Is Open

Summer swim takes a village, and meets are where we need the most help. Thank you to everyone who has already signed up!

New spots have opened for meet setup and takedown. Especially take downs, these are very important roles that help us keep our community happy to host the winningest NVSL team in this decade.

We also have two open spots to help re-tag our record board this Saturday (6/6), during Swim Team practice. This is a great way to help preserve and celebrate Tuckahoe’s incredible swim history.

Please let the team reps know about your interest, and they will add your credits for this task.

Webstore Opening This Weekend

Good news: the team webstore will be opening this weekend! This is a great chance to pick up additional Tuckahoe gear and show off that Tiger pride all season long.

Registration Gear Pickup

Gear purchased during registration will be available for pickup during the Black & Gold Time Trials.

Monday Meets Begin June 22

Our Monday Meets begin on June 22!

Registration for each Monday Meet will open on SwimTopia one week before each meet, so please keep an eye out and sign up when registration becomes available.

We are so excited to get this season moving. The energy is building, the swimmers are working hard, and Black & Gold is the perfect way to kick off another great Tuckahoe summer.

Go Tuckahoe! (clap!) 🐯
