Prior to your participation stop by the desk and deposit your donation.
Swim caps with the C3 logo will be for sale at the desk for $5.
Teams are made based on your replies. If you did not RSVP and want to play, just come (the teams are arranged by grade so you can tell which to join).
If you are on one of the teams that plays first, please arrive at 11:15 to help setup the facility.
Participation Book – Each team will have their picture taken by our photographer. Athletes will then need sign a guest book (we will include the team pic later).
Social from 4-5 pm – We are counting on your attendance if you replied Yes on the google doc. This is free.
Each day Caroline is getting better and better. Yesterday she was passing the water polo ball to us (JT & Susan) left handed. She still has a long way to go and your support is greatly appreciated. Sunday will be an amazing day.
