Hi all, Hope you had a jolly Christmas and a rowdy New Year. Training starts this Sunday the 8th Jan 2012 with Swimming at Bulmershe. Look forward to seeing you all and catching up. A big well done to our TVT league winner Philip who stormed the table with an impressive 415 points some 78 points ahead of 2nd place man Andrew G. I already have 1st place trophy could those with 2nd and 3rd place trophy from last year please bring them back for engraving. Many thanks Mandy
Tomorrow's lake session is going ahead. Please contact me via email or the 'about TVT' page for further details if you have not received the email I sent to most parents. Please be there for 8.30 sharp and also bring running gear in case the lake conditions worsen. Nick
Hi all,
As you see from the training dates chart we are aiming for a meeting of 8.30 at the lake this Sunday so that we can all get sorted and be in the water by 9am. The water temp at the moment is reading 18.9C. So we should be ok. The price of a single swim is £5 but last time they charged the children £4 not sure if still the same though. As many parents in the water would be welcome.
Address is - Copthorne Hotel, Pingewood
Reading RG30 3UN
Hi all,
