Weekly Sign Out Procedure
We want to encourage all families to get into the habit of following our Weekly Sign Out Procedure (step 1 of meet check-in procedure & warm-up). This process helps ensure a successful, less stressful, meet each Saturday. This only applies to families that have a swimmer(s) that will NOT be in attendance at a Saturday meet. NOTICE who you contact on which days and by what time: * Sign Out on bulletin board at the pool by Tuesday 7:00pm (End of last practice of the day, handbook says 11:00am, should be 7:00pm for current practice schedule, will change Monday, June 9) * Wednesday – Thursday, prior to 3:00pm Contact Debbie Donahue - 832.656.0971 After 3:00pm on Thursday – until the end of the meet on Saturday Contact Bill Ebanks - 281.253.2125 (for more detailed information on Meet Check-In Procedure & Warm-Up refer to Raveneaux Racer Handbook - pages 8 - 9) Lastly, make sure you keep up with Racers news, info and updates by any one of the 3 following methods: Email, Website, Pool Bulletin Board! We look forward to a GREAT 2008!

COMMUNICATION Important Information: The Raveneaux Racers website and team emails will be the primary means to communicate information to swimmers and their families. The bulletin boards on the wall facing the pool area are also for swim team information. Please check them weekly throughout the season for valuable information regarding changes in practice schedules, meet information, and announcements about special events. It is up to you to keep yourself informed. Swimmers are not usually the best at relaying information to their parents! Please check the website!!! If you are not receiving team emails or are concerned that you are not on the email list, please contact ajDolhun@att.net . TEAM ATTIRE Swimsuits: The 2008 Raveneaux Racer team swimsuit can be purchased at registration from D & J Sports or you can visit their location at 11407 Spring Cypress Road. Tell them you are a Raveneaux Racer, and they will direct you to the proper suit. Girls must wear a one-piece, racing style suit for all swim team activities. Boys may wear either the racing suit or jammers (longer suit which comes just above the knees). These are the same design worn last year.
