Dearest Viking Families,

Believe it or not, we are 44 days out from the first day of practice and we are 63 Vikings strong so far! That means it is time to get registered if you haven’t yet. As a reminder, register by May 4th to ensure you receive your desired T-shirt size. T-shirt sizes will be very limited if you register after May 4th.Please get your swimsuit order placed or purchased in store at SuitUp by May 4th as well. 

Volunteer Help Needed:

We are still looking for a couple new faces to step up and become an NVSL Stroke and Turn Official! If you’re considering this, please shoot me a quick email and let me know so I can add you to my mental officials list. I’m also happy to answer any questions about it - I’ve been a S&T official with YMCA, NVSL, and PVS for a couple years now. It’s not as tough as it might look, I promise!

We are also still looking for an Assistant Concession’s Chair to help Natalie with all things concessions. She will be doing all of the planning - so you don’t need to be a culinary genius! Email me if you’re interested. This position also comes with $100 off of registration! (I’ll refund you if you’re already registered!)
