Hi Rattlesnake Family,

I hope everyone made it home safely and got some well-deserved rest after Saturday's hard-fought meet.

It was an incredibly close competition, but in the end we finished in 2nd place. Congratulations to Woodforest for taking home the Divisionals Championship!

Final Team Scores:

• Woodforest – 1280.5
• Rattlesnakes – 1242.5
• Woodlands Hurricanes – 1124
• The Woodlands Riptides – 1086.5
• Oak Ridge Otters – 1027.5

I could not be more proud of our team. From our youngest swimmers to our oldest, every swimmer gave their best effort and represented the Rattlesnakes with heart, determination, and sportsmanship. What an amazing season!

Now it's time to celebrate everything we accomplished together at our End-of-Season Banquet on Tuesday at the Willis Community Center.

Dinner will be served at 6:30 PM, but please plan to arrive a little early so you have time to:

• Pick up your raffle tickets
• Sign the senior kickboards
• Visit with teammates and families
• Enjoy all the special activities planned for the evening

Our banquet team has done an incredible job preparing what promises to be a fantastic night. Please be sure to thank Kelly and Madison for all of their hard work and dedication. They have put countless hours into making this event special for our swimmers and families.

A couple of additional reminders:

Board Positions Needed
We are still looking for volunteers to fill the following Board positions:

• President
• Treasurer
• Secretary

This is a wonderful opportunity to give back to the team and help shape the future of the Rattlesnakes. If you are interested or would like more information about any of these positions, please reach out to Rebecca or me. We'd be happy to answer any questions and add your name to the ballot.

Invitational Practice
For those swimmers participating in Invitationals next weekend, practice will be held tomorrow from 9:00 AM – 10:00 AM.

I can't wait to celebrate an incredible season with all of you on Tuesday night!

"Success is best when it's shared. Tonight we celebrate not just victories, but the friendships, memories, hard work, and team spirit that made this season unforgettable."

Swim Fast,

Matt
