Ticket Cost: $10 per person, be they member or guest. Children free.
Time: 5:00 p.m. until Lou throws us out.
Eats: Pot Luck, plus the basic dogs, buns and beer provided by the Club.
Bring and share. Lots of fun.
Due to the BIG FUN we had last year when we turned The Fourth into a Dolphin event, we are doing it again this year. While the rest of the world is jammin' in Aquatic Park, waiting for the sun to go down and the fireworks to go up, the Dolphin Club is throwing a party at 502 Jefferson.
Please keep it safe, keep an eye out, and help protect and preserve our beautiful Club: No fireworks, flaming devices or other ordinance permitted on Club property; Do not go up on the roof, Lou's stairs, or the deck outside the Staib Room. Even if you don't eat the dogs, it's well worth the ten dollar bill - No Freeloaders!
See you there.

Swim Season
I'd like to ask you for your help. We have some long term jobs that we need some volunteers to fill.
Results Recorder
Nigel Killeen who has graciously recorded all results for swims for over a year now, is stepping down. I'm asking for someone to step up and fill that position. This job basically involves taking all results of swimmers, helpers and pilots and typing them up before then sending them off to Pat McGarvey who manages all the results, helps and swimmers and then passes them onto the webmaster and Dolphin Log. Thank you Nigel for all of your wonderful work in this area! If you are interested, please email me
directly.
Timer Team
I'd like to start a new committee of timers. I think we could use about 4-6 people who would be in charge of timing for each swim. Only one or two folks from the timer team would have to show up for each swim. They would then be able to help manage and train helpers who want to time and hand out sticks. In other words, we would still have people volunteer to help time and hand out sticks for each swim, but the timer team would provide consistency and instruction for those helpers. If you are interested, please email me directly.
This amazing club of ours works because of our volunteers. Consider putting in a little extra work to make sure our swim program works well.
Thanks for your support!
Cheers,
Brian Herrick
