All the Ribbons - Splash 2012-13

The Fall - Winter - Spring Splash 2012-13 season came to a close.  I know cuz I saw the Pizza delivery guy come to the rec center.

I like how the Swansea coaches created cards for all the kids with their times from each of the swim meets and events, so you can see the progress from Fall to Spring.
Alejandra is the best coach.  The kids all love her, and they listen to her.  She's the pregnant one on the left there, and all the parents know she is the heart and soul of the Swansea Splash program.


In fact ALL the Swansea coaches are all great.  They all show up for the swim meets and they are very organized.  Not all the rec centers are like this.  One will remAiN NamEless buT ThEy're those who know which CRC I'm referring.

Alejandra may not be returning for the Fall 2013 session once she gives birth, so this was a send off.  None of us know for sure. Hopefully she gets bored and comes back so we can baby sit her new son while she coaches the kids again.

We missed a couple in the Fall and Winter because of b-day parties, and one ice ball.  The Spring we missed 1 because it fell on Kieran's b-day party and only did part of the Finals (again due to a b-day party).


Kieran managed to get the one ribbon that he had yet to get.
The WHITE ribbon.

He now has the full set.  1st through 6th.
Imagine he didn't want all the same, he wanted ALL the ribbons!

So the kids were called up 1 by 1 to get their time cards, their team ribbon and most improved ribbons.







But mostly they just wanted the OREOs and Doritos.
