Natalie Bolin Spirit Invite Champions!

Before they dressed up as Smurfs and Princesses, our swimmers and divers won yesterday's Natalie Bolin Spirit Invite at Oshkosh West.  I loved watching the varsity swim their best while the JV cheered them on.  It was a true team effort.  Congratulations, ladies!  You are true champions!

Halloween Party Highlights!

Hi Swim & Dive Families!

As you know, last night was our annual team Halloween party, and I thought you might like a peek at the girls all dressed up in their costumes.  The best part of this party is always seeing what the groups come up with for a theme.  The girls really get into working on costumes--I love it!  

This year's winner of the Best Theme & Costume Award went to the Wizard of Oz group:  Lauren, Shelby, Ashley, Anna, Alicia, and Caroline.  Way to go, ladies--you all looked awesome!

There was a very realistic looking Grey's Anatomy group made up of Elizabeth, Leeah, Alli (so gross and fabulous!), Delena, & Jen:

 Emily, Morgan and Mady were completely cute at cats:
 
 Hannah, Rachel, Julia, Abby and Rachel went with a fun Dr. Seuss theme (I love Julia's bangs!):
 We had a pretty Princess group, too, made up of Melana, Karla, Lindsey, Kennady, Emily, & Emily:
 And Jamie and Emily came dressed as completely cute cowgirls:
 Julia, Emily, and Emma showed up as Where's Waldo cuties:
 and Devon, Cece, Cassidy and Emily came as Little Bo Peep and her sheep:
 Finally, Gabriella, Karly, Karla, and Kiki painted themselves blue and came as (extremely blue) Smurfs:
After the scavenger hunt, we gave out a few prizes.  As I mentioned earlier, the Wizard of Oz group won the best "Overall Group" award.  Kayla and Alli won the individual costume awards for going above and beyond with their costumes:
