We are on a modified schedule for Thanksgiving from Wednesday, November 27 through Sunday, December 1. We are back on our regular schedule on Monday, December 2.

You'll find our complete Thanksgiving practice schedule here .

It doesn't affect the signing up process, but we had some dates wrong for championship meets on our original meet schedule and sign-up form. You'll find our updated schedule here and updated form here.

Double check the schedule for eligibility before you sign up. Also, please note that the McGaw YMCA/YWCA dual meet has a fee, which goes to support Evanston Swims!. That fee is due when you turn in your form.

For Thunderfish swimming in the Midwest Open in January, forms are due Friday, November 22. All other sign-up forms are due by Saturday, December 7. You can put forms in Pete's folder or send him an email.

Congratulations to our high school girls on their stellar swims at the Sectional meet last weekend. And good luck to our Flying Fish girls who qualified for the IHSA State meet this weekend: Lily Consiglio, Erin Long and Natalie Long.

A special shout-out to Erin Long, who broke a 35-year-old ETHS record in the 100 free at Sectionals. You can read about this and other record-breaking swims that included Flying Fish here.

If you're looking for gift ideas for your swimmer, check out our holiday gear sale, which will be held in the lobby on December 2, 3 and 6. We'll have special items, like hats, flannels and hoodies just for the holidays.

Remember, you can always order Flying Fish gear online through our vendor, All-American Aquatics. Questions? Contact Anne Wolff.

Parents: Join other Flying Fish parents for a gathering from 7 to 9 pm on Thursday, December 12, at Temperance Beer Co. The Flying Fish Boosters sent an Evite to all families, but if you didn't receive it, you can see details about the event and RSVP here.
