Monthly Newsletter

THE LANE LINE

JUNE 2005

Volume 1

 

Welcome to the first of hopefully many TAM newsletters to come! In an effort to increase communication amongst our many members and to keep up with the multiple athletic and social activities that are generated by our swim club we will try and publish this newsletter every one or two months.  Please feel free to contribute items at any time.

Nationals

TAM sent a small, but powerful contingent to Short Course Nationals in Florida last month. Gary, Nancy, Ken, Rich, Jon, Judy, Jasmine, Walter and Laura Val took the trip. A wonderful time was had by all and some great races were swum. We would love to increase the number of swimmers who participate in meets like this.  Please contact Coach Marie if you might be interested in taking the plunge.

Upcoming Swims

Summer is almost upon us and so is the Long Course and Open Water Swimming season. TAM will be sending two teams to participate in the Trans-Tahoe Relay this year. Spring Lake and Berryessa have already taken place, but there are many more races to be swum!  Carpooling is not only good for the environment, but let’s you get to know your fellow swimmers. If you are planning to go to a swim and want to carpool put your name on the bulletin board at the pool and see if you can find company!  Check out the list below to see what’s coming.  More information on all these swims can be found at www.pacificmasters.org.

June 18            Lake del Valle

June 25            Lake Sonoma

July 17             Folsom Lake

July 7-10          PMS Long Course Championships

July 23             Trans-Tahoe Relay

July 30             Santa Cruz Pier Swim

July 31             Santa Cruz Pier-to-Pier-Swim

Practice schedules

Please note that Saturday practices will begin at 7am through July 16th. The one exception will be for July Fourth Weekend.  Check the whiteboard at practice for practice times for Saturday, July 2nd and Monday, July 4th.

Summer Parking

Remember you may park on campus in legal spaces until further notice.

August Swim Schedule

It is never too early to look at your late July and early August schedule and find time to help cover the pool while Coach Marie is on vacation. She will be gone in late July through early August. People are needed to open, close and take care of the pool maintenance while she takes a well-deserved vacation.  Please check the bulletin Board for sign-ups beginning in July. The only way the pool stays open is if we all help.  Thanks in advance.

Social Events

Bea and Bob Heim are planning a cookout to celebrate their 160 years on the planet together! They will be hosting a party at their home at 87 Chula Vista Drive in San Rafael on Saturday, July 17th.  There is a sign-up on the Bulletin Board for anyone who can come.  Please sign up by July 1st. Congratulations to Bea and Bob!

Memorial Service for Laura Bea

The Memorial Service for Laura Bea White will be on Saturday, June 25 at 1 pm. The gathering will be at 149 Sequoia Avenue in San Anselmo (her mother’s home).  Please join Laura Bea’s family in remembrance of her life. Please sign up on the bulletin board. If you are unable to make this event, but would like to contribute some remembrances of Laura Bea, please send them to Jessica Jakobi at 160 Meadowcroft Drive, San Anselmo, CA  94960  or email her at jkolenda1@comcast.net.
