Gators 2026 - Team Email 6/27
Greetings Gators Families,
I hope you are all having a nice weekend.
Looking ahead…
6/30: Home Meet - We will be hosting the Kingsgate Royals. Our website has all the home meet information. Please review and plan accordingly. The pool/parking lot will open at 4:15 for set up, warm ups are at 4:45 for Gators, the meet starts at 6pm. Food trucks are listed on the team calendar. Buddha Bruddah is scheduled for this meet
*Any Gators who want to sing/perform the national anthem?
7/2: Away Meet - We will be hosted by the Kingsgate Royals. Warm ups are at 5:15 for Gators, the meet starts at 6pm. Our website also has away meet information, and attached to this email
7/7: Team Awards & Party - More info to come. The rough plan is team awards in the lower field from 630-730pm (ish) and then a pool party at 8/830pm.
7/9: Home Meet - We will be hosting the Highwoodland Dolphins. Our website has all the home meet information. Please review and plan accordingly. The pool/parking lot will open at 4:15 for set up, warm ups are at 4:45 for Gators, the meet starts at 6pm. Food trucks are listed on the team calendar. HP Smokehouse is scheduled for this meet
*Senior Night: This meet will be extra special as we celebrate our seniors Markus and Carla.
*THE Relay: This meet will also include our annual and much anticipated relay of the season. Our Senior/Coaches/Parents/Lifeguards will compete for bragging rights. The relay will be around event 37 (or halfway through the meet). Please let us know if you want to participate. Depending on interest and availability, we will have multiple heats. The more the merrier! It is always a lot of fun to humble the children this one time a season as the parents are probably the reigning champions. Ha!
