The following weekend we have a further fundraiser with the Sponsored Swim Event at HMS Caledonia from 1.00pm - 3.00pm. Again, parental help is requested poolside to manage this event. Please contact Sam if you can assist in any way. Sam is working very hard to make these events a success. Please show your appreciation by assisting her in any way you can!

Finally, in case you don't yet know, we have our 2nd InCAS Distance Meet on 23/24 June 2007 at FIPRE, Glenrothes. Once again we are informed that we heve been overwhelmed by entries with over 30 clubs asking to attend. Final swims have yet to be finalized, but we will need as many parent helpers as possible to manage this two day event. Even if you child is not swimming, please remember that this is our major source of income for the year. Let's make it an enjoyable weekend for all. Even if you can only spare a few hours, your will know that you have helped support your Club. Please let us know if you can come along by emailing us at incas@tesco.net

After all this excitement, we can all relax and pack the kids of to Fordell Firs on the morning of Sunday 1st July. This fun event has only been made possible by the hard work of previous fund raising activities and the organisational skills of our Club Secretary, Gill Morgan. Gill has worked very hard to ensure that the money raised from the last Asda Bag Pack is put to good use to reward our young people. We hope to end the day with a barbeque giving us all a chance to relax, socialise and reflect on all our recent achievements and look forward to the long hot summer holiday ahead!

Thanks to Liz, Queenie, Ruth and Tom for assisting poolside and time-keeping. Special thanks to Gill & Linda for marshalling not only session 1 but also session 2 thereby preventing the Club from receiving a fine and also to Shonah and Lindsay for their sterling duties in copying and selling of programmes and raffle tickets again for both sessions.. Above and beyond everyone!! There's nothing we can't do now (apart from 25m butterfly!)

Full results for both this weekend's galas at Glenrothes and Tollcross will appear here as soon as results are available. Well done to all InCAS swimmers who participated at galas this weekend.

Very well done to everyone - what a fantastic achievement!

Also breaking records south of the border last weekend, Craig Holmes was competing in the Carlisle Masters  and got 2 golds plus 2 silvers.. The golds were awarded for 50m butterfly in a time of 26.83 which  I am told is one one hundredth off the Scottish masters record - a new PB for Craig though! The other gold was in 100m butterfly.  The silver medals came from 50m backstroke setting a new club record of 28.80, the other being in 100m freestyle. 

Well done Craig!

Cast your minds back to a few months ago. John Kirby gave us all the opportunity to raise some much needed funds for InCAS in the form of SASA raffle tickets. For each ticket sold we earn 50p and SASA earn 50p! We now need to collect all the ticket sales money plus the stubs so that we can return them in time for the draw. Gill Morgan has volunteered to do this job beginning next Monday 21st May. 

PLEASE ENSURE YOU HAVE ALL FUNDS AND TICKET STUBS AVAILABLE FOR COLLECTION DURING THAT WEEK.  

Please note: For those of you returning more than 50% of tickets unsold, you will be due Garrie 100 sit ups!. You have 7 days to sell, sell sell!!

Under 8's can now swim at DUNFERMLINE SPRINTS GALA on SAT 19th May 2007.

Pauline Lawson has just been informed......... "Following an about turn by SASA that they failed to tell us about until now, we are able to accept under 8’s to this gala after all. Therefore I have reinstated the entries you made. I am aware that this is very short notice and so if you need to withdraw any of these swims they will still get a refund."

Pauline Lawson has asked the membership to be reminded that the closing date for entries to our own Distance Meet  is on Thursday 17th May.  As Pauline will only be poolside on Wednesday and Thursday of this week, if you want to be considered for entry, payment must be made to Pauline on or before the closing date. PAYMENT AFTER THIS DATE WILL NOT BE POSSIBLE AND YOU WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED TO SWIM AT OUR OWN InCAS EVENT.
