RESL Championships: Update

120+ Swimmers have registered so far. Please register on FastSwims ASAP so we can finalize relays.

We will be racing with a uniform team theme and everyone will wear our white swim caps for prelim sessions, and pink caps for finals. Using other caps, even loosely team-themed caps such as our Club Championships custom color caps, is not allowed.

If your swimmer has lost or ripped either of those caps, please contact Pooja at poojasethi@gmail.com this week about replacing them.

As a reminder, this is an "all hands on deck" situation. Parents should expect to sign up or be assigned to one shift per day that you have swimmers participating.

Go PST!

4th of July: Piedmont Parade

PST families are welcome to join in marching in Piedmont’s 4th of July Parade for the third year in a row! Let’s share our team spirit with the greater Piedmont community!

This year, we will have a motorized “Fish” float leading our swimming school of fish as we march. We welcome everyone that wants to deck out their bike, scooter or stroller as a FISH (piranha?) to do so! Groups are encouraged to meet up and prepare one or more of these mini-fish floats together. Walkers should bring Bubble machines to fill the air with bubbles and individually wrapped Swedish Fish to hand out (no throwing candy!)

July 4th Parade Details

When: Meet at 9:30am
Location: The team will meet at the Carnazzo’s house at 150 Highland Avenue for delicious Snow Cones before lining up for the parade at 10:30
Bring: Bubble machines, fish floats on wheels, Swedish fish
Wear: PST gear! T-shirts, swimsuits, parkas, hats etc. Dress for the weather.

For younger swimmers 9 and under, please plan for one parent or older sibling to walk with them. Email Kira at community@piedmontswimteam.org with questions.

PST Awards
Congratulations again to all of our award recipients from last season! If you received an award, please return it to a coach ASAP. We need these returned immediately so we can begin preparing for our upcoming annual Awards Banquet. Thank you for your prompt help!

Sponsor Spotlight: Lisa Chan Carnazzo, Broker Associate with the Grubb Co.

Thank you, Lisa, for being our *Elite Business Sponsor* for the second year in a row!

Check out the post on Instagram.

From Lisa: As a Realtor, community is at the heart of everything I do. Supporting PST is my way of giving back to an organization that has given so much to our family while investing in the young athletes and families who make our community so special. I’m happy to support a team that means so much to us-both in and out of the pool.

Service Hour Check-In & Policy Reminder

As we approach the end of the season, please review your family's service hours. Per club service hour policy, all unworked hours will be automatically billed to your payment method on file on August 1st.

How to check your hours:

Go to My Account → Account Info.

Click on the Service Hour tab.

If you notice any missing hours that you have already worked, please contact our Service Hour Coordinator, Rafael, to get it resolved.

Opportunities & Meet Policy:

We have several upcoming home and local meets, which are fantastic opportunities to get those remaining hours in! As a reminder, our policy states that if your swimmer is registered to compete in a meet, you are still required to work a meet job, even if you have already completed your seasonal service hour minimum. Thank you for your cooperation and support on deck!

Note on Monthly Dues: 10-Month Payment Plan

As a reminder, the final standard monthly dues payment of the season was processed on June 1st. Because PST operates on a 10-month payment plan, there will be no monthly dues charged on July 1st or August 1st for the vast majority of our families.

Important Exception: Our Green Group families will have their final billing processed on July 1st to align with their specific schedule.

For full details regarding our seasonal billing schedules, please refer to the financial policy section of the PST Handbook.

Congratulations and Thank You!

A huge thank you and congratulations to our two newest officials!

Sven Khatri is becoming a certified stroke and turn official and after this weekend, Tracy Dooley will be a certified admin official.

We are responsible for providing officials at every meet we attend, and having Sven and Tracy join is a huge help to the team.

If you are curious about becoming an official, ask Sven or Tracy about the process, or reach out to our Officials Coordinator, Mike Hakiel
