We had a blast at the Paducah Swim Fest! We were so thankful to be included in such a great meet. Our swimmers all did pretty well during the races. Coach Carrie will have more on that later. The Spaghetti Dinner was so much fun and not too much hard work for anyone! Many thanks to all the folks who helped with it. Richette Harris, our old friend who now swims with Madison, was a blessing. She made sure all the toast was toasted. Jennifer Wright stayed around and washed dishes; thank-you! Cheri Hamilton assembled the salad and helped with the noodles and so much more!! Thank-you! Ty Kelly, thanks for all of your help in so many ways. Many, many thanks to all the people who sent their crock pots over and helped. WE really appreciatied the way so many of you pitched in and helped out! We thought it all tasted pretty yummy, too.
Coach Jan counted up the donations and we broke even from all the expenses of food purchases! Yeah!!
Be thinking about if you'd like to stay in a suite next year and host the spaghetti dinner for fun!!
The most fun was had after the dinner when most of the teen agers ended up in the room playing cards until ??? weee hours of the morning!! Watch for some pictures to come!!
I apologize that the articles aren't easier to read. Newspaper scans are never too clear. I did try to go the www.paducahsun.com site and cut and paste it in the blog; but, you have to be a subscriber to their paper. Paper copies of the article are posted on the board in the swim hall.
