CORRECTION: Bill Doty just called to accounce that ALL activities at Franklin Community HS have now been cancelled, this includes swim/dive practice. #SpreadTheWord

Bill Doty just called. Practice on this wonderful AM (1/12) has been pushed back to 8-11am to allow school maintenance crews to make headway on the snow around the school, parking lot, road. Please be careful while driving! See ya at the pool! #spreadtheword

Ladies, Jodi will be in the pool area directly after school to grab a quick picture of each of you. Be sure and find her!

Attention Boy Parents!

Our annual hair dye event for the boys team will take place on Friday, January 25th after practice in the pool area. Before the hair dye, the boys will have their individual picture taken for their sectional window cling. Food and drink will be provided for the boys at this event. The boys are free to bring games and/or cards to play with during their wait for the hair dying process.

Some pre-dying helpful tips to make the process easy and quick…..optional!

- Have your son get a haircut before the event. This cuts down on the time it takes to complete the dye process.

- There is a malibu treatment that can be given beforehand at your local salon that removes chlorine and conditions the hair which helps with the dye process and to lighten the hair with one dye treatment instead multiple treatments.

There are still spots open on volunteer spot if you are interested in helping with this event!

Parents of FCHSSND Female Athletes,
Championship Season is right around the corner so I wanted to give you all a heads up as to what to expect. I have sent this email to “ALL Parents” because I do not want to miss anyone. All female athletes are included in the events listed below. So, if you have a male athlete, feel free to read and take in the information. Your championship season will be very similar but you can disregard for the time being. Keep in mind, parents of male athletes are responsible for timing Sectional finals on February 2nd.

Important Dates
*+*Monday, January 21st*+
Fast skin suit fitting at the FCHS natatorium @10:00am. This gives every athlete competing an opportunity to purchase a fast skin at discount prices.**MORE INFORMATION TO COME

Senior Night

*+*Saturday, January 26th+*
Team will be heading to the JV INVITE @Lawrence North HS
Sectional posters will be hung in the glass hallway between pool and front office.
Poster instructions: All swimmers/divers will have an individual poster made by their parent. The poster should be 14×22 in size. This is about 1/2 of a poster board. Please use this size poster. The custodial staff gets upset with us when the larger posters (due to their weight) fall during the night and cause the security system to trigger. The smaller poster is much easier to manage with 30 teammates. Feel free to take advantage of the FCHSSND Shutterfly website. Jodi (and Toby) have done a fantastic job capturing great photos of all the athletes. Also, include stickers, favorite quotes, inspirational sayings, etc. to decorate your child’s poster. Please let me or an upper class men parent know if you would like to see a sample poster. Don’t stress over this. Have fun with it! Your child will love it!
Please have posters at the pool by 10:00am. You may hang yours in the glass hallway or place it on the “Lockbox” table in the storage room (at your own risk) and someone will hang it for you.
