BBQ de fermeture

by

Chers familles et amis de la piscine,

Ce fut un incroyable été à la piscine. Le temps chaud était au rendez-vous et nous sommes fiers de la réussite de chaque programme. Mais ce n’est pas encore fini. Notre BBQ annuel de fermeture aura lieu ce samedi 27 août. La météo devrait être de notre côté avec du soleil, un peu de nuages et un maximum de 25 (28 température ressentie). Voici ce que vous devez savoir :

  • Les activités et jeux commencent à 14h
  • Le souper sera à partir de 17h
  • Il y aura des hamburgers et des hot dogs à vendre
  • Vous pouvez aussi apporter ce que vous voulez et utiliser le grill (nous aurons sans doute besoin de faire des rotations) SVP pas de fruits de mer à cause des allergies. 

Pour poursuivre la tradition nous demandons la contribution des familles :

  • Familles ayant un nom qui commence par les lettres A-M apportez un dessert à partager
  • Familles ayant un nom qui commence par les lettres N-Z apportez une salade à partager

boatracePour poursuivre la tradition les enfants sont invités à construire un bateau pour une course dans la piscine (une personne est dans le bateau et plusieurs autres pour le faire avancer dans l’eau).

Les membres du comité ont hâte de vous retrouver, venez en grand nombre pour une soirée inoubliable !

Closing BBQ

by

closingBBQDear Lakeshore Families and Friends,

It’s been a spectacular Summer at Lakeshore. Not only was the weather fabulous, but the pool had a tremendous year in all programs. We are all so proud of our Lakeshore Community! But it’s not over just yet. Our annual Closing BBQ is this Saturday, August 27th. As I type, the forecast for Saturday is sunny with only a bit of cloud, a high of 25 (feeling like 28). Sounds just about perfect. Here is what you need to know:

  • Activities and games start around 2:00 pm
  • Dinner will start around 5:00 pm
  • We will have burgers and hotdogs for sale
  • We will have beer and perhaps sangria as well for sale
  • If you wish, you may bring what you would like to grill for dinner (the grill is plenty big enough to share though we may need to take turns cooking.) Please no shellfish due to some allergies we have learned of.

In keeping with our past tradition, your contributions would be appreciated as follows:

  • Families whose last name begins with the letter A – M are asked to bring a dessert to share
  • Families whose last name begins with the letter N – Z are asked to bring a salad to share

As a tradition,  the kids are invited to build a boat for a race (will require one person to ride the boat and others to move the boat along).

The committee and I are very much looking forward to seeing you all there. Please come make this a day to remember. The laughter was raucous last year – let’s see if we can make it even louder

THANK YOU!

sectionAfinalsWe would like to extend a heartfelt THANK YOU to everyone who helped make Section Finals such a success. We were up against a lot of rainy weather- but this did not deter smiles, team spirit and great effort to create a fun and memorable day- not to mention a winning meet for Lakeshore! We’ll be sure to send out the final scores once we get our hands on them! The meet could not have run as smoothly without everyone’s help, so again- Thank you! A BIG congratulations to all swimmers who competed at Section Finals! Best wishes to those heading to Finals next Saturday at Cedar Park Heights Pool- ask your coaches for more details!

Lakeshore Section Finals Organizers

Lakeshore is hosting SECTION FINALS for A POOLS on August 13 – WE NEED YOUR HELP

by

SHORE-hosting

On Saturday August 13, Lakeshore Pool will be hosting the Section Finals for A pools -all the pools we’ve swam against this summer. This will be a huge event for Lakeshore- similar to the Finals we hosted last summer. It’s a very rare occurrence for our pool to be hosting such significant events two years in a row. As we know from last year, it takes MANY people to make this event a great success. We are reaching out to the Lakeshore community once again to ask for your help!

If you would like to be a part of a day that promises to have lots of energy, excitement and fun- this is your chance!!!

Most of the volunteering will centre around food on the day of the event- set up, preparation and selling of food! Beyond this, there will be a need for setup on Friday evening, clean up on Saturday afternoon, helping with parking, raffle organization and a few other posts with details coming soon. Please note that Lakeshore will not be responsible for providing officials. All officials will be supplied by ALPS -Association of Lakeshore Pools.

If you can spare the morning or even a few hours, it would be greatly appreciated. If you are a parent of a swimmer or swimmers in the Section Finals, we would be so happy to have your help in advance or even between your children’s races on the day of the event. Please send me an email and let me know if you’re able to help and when. The times will likely range from 5pm to 9pm on Friday evening and 6am to 3pm on Saturday.

If you would like to contribute to the day but can not be there, we would greatly appreciate a donation of baked goods or a contribution for the raffle.

We’re also looking for a few people to help with advanced preparation:

  • BAKE TABLE COORDINATOR
  • PARKING COORDINATOR
  • RAFFLE ORGANIZER

We will send out more details in the upcoming days- please send me an email- scookson@videotron.ca if you have any questions about volunteering for this exciting event!

Thank you,

Sue Cookson
