Noteworthy: I want to thank all of you who contacted the Huron Valley School Board on behalf of our team. Unfortunately, we will again need to cancel pm swim practices this week. While the pool schedule remains the same, the coaches continue to work to find a solution that allows us to return to a normal schedule. We are hoping that we can work out a solution this week.
Due in part from your letters to the board; the Director of Recreation and Community Education Shannon Loso has asked the Director of Aquatics Michael Powers to invite our coaches and any members of MAC to a meeting on this Monday (September 18) after practice (11:00am in the balcony above the pool). The directors stated that they would like to brainstorm and discuss options with our team so that everyone is on the same page.
Our coach, Kris Goodrich, sent the Huron Valley School Board a letter detailing her disappointment with the situation. She has been following up with supervisory staff in order to not only solve the short-term issues but to come up with a long-term solution as well. I have included the email in an attachment for those who are interested in reading it.
One Further Note: With the lack of PM practices we would like to get everyone together for some team bonding and catching up after a quick summer and a different start to the season. We will meet at the Comeback Inn in Milford on Wednesday night at 7:00pm, regular practice time.

From the Coaches:
Take note of, and mark your calendars for, the Milford Monsters Meters Meet (10/28) that we are hosting at MHS. More info to come!
On a Personal Note: We will continue to work on stroke count this week as well as complete another round of test set in a different form. Look for workouts from the last week in a separate email.
