AH Dive Preseason Email #4

Hi Dive Team Families,
I hope you all enjoyed the sun last week! As we near the end of spring, it is time to start thinking about meet RSVPs and volunteer sign-ups. Keep reading for more details.
 
Upcoming Events
June 19 5:30-8:00pm All Teams Kickoff BBQ 
This is when all members and families of the dive, swim, tennis and water polo teams come together to enjoy an evening of fun and Arb spirit before the season begins. This party happens during Open Swim, so other members will be at the pool too. We will be serving up chicken wings, burgers and dogs with potluck sides. 
June 22 First Day of Summer Practice! View the schedule here.
June 23 Mandatory Dive Parent & Coach Meeting
June 26 9:00am Picture Day
Dive team pictures will start around 9am. We’ll do the team photo first, followed by individual/sibling photos. If you are on other teams, swim starts at 8am, and tennis is around 10am after dive finishes. We will need helpers for breakfast, and to help the photographer keep things running smoothly. 
Volunteer here. Photo order link will be available soon.
June 27 9:00am-12:00pm Otter RipFest Mock Meet
New this year! Otter RipFest will give divers, both new and experienced, a great opportunity to practice at a dive meet without the pressure of competition. It will also be a volunteer training opportunity for parents. We will be implementing a new computer system at the scoring table, and will be training a few parents to run this. The rest of the parents will attend a judging clinic so everyone will be well-prepared to volunteer at meets this summer!
Volunteers – I am still looking for an announcer and volunteers to train on the new computer system. Please sign up to train on these roles at Otter RipFest if you plan to volunteer for these roles during our two home meets. Reach out to me if you have any questions.

AHSTC News 6/8/26

Dear Members,

Now that the season is underway, I would like to introduce you to some of the faces you see the most at the pool; our Office Ladies!

Julia — not pictured as she’s currently off on an adventure in Italy! She has been an employee at the arb for 10+ years. Previously a life guard before her move to the office! We will update the picture when she gets home.

Elena — previously one of our lifeguards, Elena has decided to follow in her mother’s footsteps and join the office team. Many members may remember her mom, Kathleen, who served as an office lady for many years!

Ashlee — our newest addition to the office staff. Welcome, Ashlee!

Sara — This is Sara’s second year in the office and we are so happy she is part of the team.

Karla — our longest-serving Arb employee, with more than 20 years of dedicated service in the office. Karla was a member and watched her daughters grow up swimming at the pool. Now her oldest daughter and first granddaughter are members at the arb and her youngest is an Arb employee, too! Thank you, Karla. We are so lucky to have you on the team.

Next time you’re at the pool, please take a moment to thank the office ladies and have a little chat with them.
