Practice begins this Monday!

Get excited Marlins!! Coach Austin sent out an email a few days ago welcoming registered swimmers to the 2025 season. Our practices begin this week. Swimmers need to be prepared each day with SHOES AND SOCKS as coaches make a day-by-day decision of whether to be in the water or do dryland activities.
Keep an eye on email and the Swimtopia app alert if last-minute changes occur due to serious weather or pool closure.

Practice Schedule through June 13
Afternoon Practice Only: (Monday – Friday):
4:30 – 5:30 (11 & up)
5:30 - 6:00 (6 & under)
6:00 – 7:00 (7-10)
No practice Memorial Day

MOD Pizza Fundraiser Thursday

Essential Fundraising News
We are just weeks away from the Blue and White meet (May 31) and the deadline for sponsors to be on the team t-shirts (May 23). We are still looking for a handful of businesses to be on the team t-shirt. This is a great opportunity to share your business on over 100 shirts around Raleigh. https://lpk.swimtopia.com/sponsors

Our silent auction at the end of the month has been a big hit in the past. Do you or your teen have a talent to share? A gift card to donate? Vintage LPK shirts? We're looking for a few big ticket items to highlight (beach house anyone??) but no donation is too small. Email Katie Penree at [email protected] .
Thank you for considering contributing to the expenses of our team.
