Vivien Ly Age: 10
Vivien Ly has just started swimming with VJO. She is very
anxious about swimming in a meet (or is it her grandmother
than is anxious?). She will attempt her first meet at our pool
on November 1st. She has fun swimming and enjoys Tuffy’s
humor, most of the time. She likes breaststroke and freestyle.
She is learning backstroke and butterfly. She tries hard and
works at learning all the strokes.

Volunteer Central
Parents, as we prepare for our next swim meet, we need volunteers for some key positions so that
we can make sure our meet runs like a well-oiled machine. In the spirit of fairness, we would like
to spread the workload out as much as possible and are asking parents to volunteer to do
something, if at all possible. A sign-up sheet will be available on deck so please, please, please
sign up to help out.
Like being on deck? We need at least 5 parents to volunteer to be marshals – will train.
Like getting a lot of exercise? We need at least 2 runners at all times to transport paperwork
between the timers and the computer room and post heat & lane assignments.
Like the excitement of the race – maybe head timer would be the job for you.
Feel at home in the kitchen – maybe you can help out with hospitality or the snack bar.
And, of course, hospitality does need some help feeding the masses…the volunteers for this job
just might be the best-loved volunteers out there.
