Good Morning Neptune Nation,

Thank you to everyone who came out, participated, cheered, volunteered and contributed to the success of our first meet. A special thank you to those families who donated their time the ENTIRE meet-Weldon, Cuthbert, Pevarnik, Finnigan, Webster, Tucker, Weyandt, Smith, Bryant, Wall and McGeorge/Roth. For those of you who are new, these seasoned families are a great resource of information. The good news is that everything will get easier from here as we all get our pool legs back. Meet Results: Bow Mar South @ Cherry Knolls

Also, a BIG thank you to Missy Crew for chairing the kick-off dinner and t-shirts from The Steller Group for our swim meets. Love that team spirit!
