Excellent Trip (Summary)

Camp has ended and what an excellent training trip the team experienced. I have to say Thank you to E.R. for creating the blog and keeping the team back home and parents up to date on our daily activities. E.R you rock and did a superb job on this site.
Camp started with excitement, butterflies, and anticipation of the unknown. As we boarded the plane the chatter never stopped and bonding among the swimmers had just begun. I laughed everyday of the camp with the funny jokes, comments and the constant creative workouts the kids thought they were going to have to do. Neal , Leah, and Hobbie were so helpful and made the camp that much more fun (playing vball, giving technique workouts, dry land workouts, driving us everywhere, and making every meal a good one).
The group of swimmers who attend the camp gelled so well together and helped one another bring out something more each practice. It was truly exciting to see new heights of work ethic, team bonding, the constant "we can do this" comments, and overall positive attitudes. Each swimmer made this camp a unique memorable experience and I thank each and everyone of you for making the training camp an excellent one:
Erik "squirrel" and " Jeff, Going to the girls room!"
Adam "I love Mean Girls!"
Greeno "Mario cart...you should see the excitement"
Brian " Nahhhhh!"
Evan "my arm pits are burning"
Matt "What does B.C. mean? I was told Bathroom Chief"
Will "I love that kid"
Victor " I will race you 100 IM"
Zach "can we have Dunkin Donuts"
Jack " I need to re-apply sunscreen"
Erin " Can you take pictures Kim?"
Kate " Can you please have a boys team meeting!"
Elise" No pictures of me"
KathyrN "Please help us with the pranks"
Maddie "Oh Victor!!!"
Heather "Awkward"
Emma "OMG! HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL"


Lets continue the great work ethic and continue to push to new limits the rest of the summer.

J.R. out.
