Chlorine ChronicleNMSC Sep/04 NewsletterWelcome from the PresidentNewsletter Contents | Next Article I would like to welcome all swimmers, both returning and new to another year with the Nepean Masters Swim Club. The year is starting off very well with all four core groups at maximum capacity right from the first week of the season, and the sub-groups of Thursday evening and Saturday morning very nearly full. I would like to publicly thank Ian Button, the club registrar, for a most excellent job well done. I would also like to thank the rest of the club executive for their efforts in getting our year's program off to a fine start. I have attached a list of this year's executive committee at the end of this newsletter and I encourage all of you to provide feedback to these members so that we might serve you all better. I would also like to thank those of last year's executive committee who shared these responsibilities and whom have now passed the torch so to speak on to new members. They are Lorri Black, registrar, Barry Doucette, VP of Group C, Anne Cole, secretary, and Irene Gunn at publicity. On behalf of all of us I thank you for your efforts. Again this year NMSC has an excellent group of coaches to train us, push us, and instruct us to swim better, farther and faster than we could on are own. Returning to “A” group is Dave Anderson and joining “A” group as coach is Lesley Guigue. Steve Papai and Ben Ouellette have both returned to “B” group, Marianne Black has been joined by Bill Westcott to coach “C” group and Bill continues with “D” group as well. Ben continues to be the Saturday guy and Tom Papai has taken over the Thursday night group. Leslie Dods has left us as a coach to pursue other coaching opportunities but she has not gone far as she is the new club secretary and continues to swim with NMSC. I would again ask all of you to communicate freely with your coach(s). A small administrative note to all weekend swimmers. Because all of the groups have maximum registration and because average attendance is very high the NMSC executive has decided that “cross-over” swims between “A” and “B”and “S” groups are not allowed until further notice. Please swim only with the group(s) that you are registered with. Again welcome to everyone, please contact me if I can be of any assistance.
