Happy Monday, OBST families!

I hope everyone enjoyed their holiday weekend despite the weather. A couple reminders at the top of the week...

1) Athletes who have entered thus far in our home swim meet, Ready, Set, Bloom on April 25th, may now log into Sportsman Web acct to pay for $5.00 entry fee. The fee is attached to your child if the charge does not pop up immediatey upon login. The deadline to enter this meet is this Friday, April 10th.

All those currently entered may view their entries via SwimTopia, however, events are subject to change. When events are submitted, I will send over the individuval events report.

2) Our last USAS meet of the Winter/Spring season will be the Flip Flop Invitational held on May 2-3 hosted by GPAC. This meet is offering 50s and 100s for all age groups in addition to more traditional senior events. The meet invitation is attached here as well as to the competition calendar.

If your athlete is going to partake in this meet, the entry deadline is Wednesday April 15th. I suggest making things easy on yourself and marking your athlete's attendances for both the home meet and Flip Flop in one swing before this Friday in order to not worry about it over Spring Break.

*** No practice during Spring Break! ***

3) Also attached below you will find the new and improved Southeastern Swimming qualifying times for Long Course 2026.

4) Lastly, if you haven't registered for the Summer 2026 seaon yet, I highly recommend doing so before this Wednesday. All swim lessons, Junior Makos sessions, and OBST spots will open to the public come 8 a.m. that morning.

Best,

Coach Dakota
