Swim/Dive End of Season Banquet Celebration
It's time to celebrate all the amazing things our athletes accomplished this year in the water! Each swimmer and diver will be acknowledged and will receive a gift from our coaches. We will also have a special slideshow created by senior Mariela Toro!
Our banquet will be held on Tuesday, March 11th at 6:30pm, in the Mill Creek cafeteria. All family members are invited to attend. The banquet is being catered by LongHorn Steakhouse. The menu will be sliced sirloin, sliced chicken, mashed potatoes, rolls, green beans, and salad with a cookie. Bottle water will also be provided.
The deadline to pre-order dinner has now passed. We might have a few $20 meals to purchase on-site, but it will be limited.
ATHLETES DO NOT need a ticket, as the booster club pays for athletes to eat. The deadline to purchase a ticket is Wednesday, March 5th.
We are looking forward to seeing everyone there!
