Dear Powerpointers,

Casey Seals Meet (21 July)

We had a good turn up of 11 Powerpointers, all keen to practice their skills for States. The usual suspects were there: Archer, Liz, Stuart, Shane, Peter R, Marijke, Helen, Laurie, Herbert, Rosa and Jennie. It was a fun night, and we came away with a swag of State and National records, so it was well worth the effort!

State Records went to: Liz Gosper (25m freestyle, 25 breaststroke, 25 butterfly)Marijke Alderson (25 freestyle, 25 breaststroke)Stuart Moffatt (25 freestyle)Helen Whitford (200 IM, 50 backstroke)Rosa Montague (200 IM)

National Records went to: Shane Gore (25 butterfly)Stuart Moffatt (25 breaststroke)Jennie Bucknell (25 freestyle, 25 backstroke, 25 butterfly)

Hoppers Crossing (Saturday 25 August, 2.45pm)

This was a fun meet last year. This year it is on in the afternoon, so if you have anything on Saturday night, you can still do it. Or we can all go out afterwards. (Maybe not in Hoppers Crossing!) The flyer can be viewed at  http://www.aussivic.com.au/data/HoppersCroc2007.pdf
