Noteworthy: For the month of August you will be receiving 2 weekly emails. One from Shutterfly as usual and one from @milfordathleticclub.org. As you know Jim has revamped our website and this new format allows for email capabilities. Therefore we will be transitioning away from Shutterfly. Now, with the exception of Remind, everything will operate off of our website. Jim and I believe that we have successfully transferred all of your email addresses into the web email however there is always a chance that we have missed someone or typed an email incorrectly. Over the next month please make sure that you a getting the new email as well as Shutterfly and remember to check the junk mail or spam just in case. If you do not receive the new email please let me know at: h2oranger@hotmail.com.
Remember that tonight is that last Monday PM practice of the summer.

Event Details/Results:
From the Coaches:
Maria: This week’s open water practice will be back in Spring Mill Pond.
Melissa: Group swims continue at Trout Saturday mornings at 7:45 – Come join us! And did you know…there is a half mile distance at Swim to the Moon on 8/20? If you’re new to open water swimming it’s the perfect distance at Swim to try and your MAC family will be on the beach at the end to cheer you on.
Jim: Milford Trail/Dry Land Circuit Workout. Join me Friday mornings in August at 9:30 am, STARTING August 4th. We’ll meet at the Milford YMCA Parking lot and walk along the paved Milford Trail (about 2 miles), with a series circuit workout stops along the way. This workout will be a fun yet challenging way to get some cross training. All ability levels welcome. It will take about 90 minutes. The workout will be “cash donation based”, (pay whatever you’d like) benefiting the MAC Young Gun fund. Bring hydration. Any questions, please send me an email: jimjtg@icloud.com
Kris: Gone for summer season
Dianne: Looking forward to some great workouts at the pool this week, come join us! Our last date for Walnut Creek Sunday practices will be August 13. Make sure you take the time to experience this facility while you still can!
On a Personal Note: Congratulations to Brice who competed in the John Logan Triathlon at Island Lake over the weekend! Brice came in 9th in the 35-39 age group! You were “Doin’ Great”!
Good Luck to everyone headed out this week to Summer Nationals in MN! We will look forward to the results!
