Welcome to the Bear-A-Cudas Website!
Dear Team members, Early Swimmers and Parents and or New potential Members,
Welcome back after what was hopefully a wonderful, restful vacation. We started AQUA FITNESS last Tuesday and we had a FULL HOUSE!
EARLY SWIMMERS starts today at KRUMMESTRASSE! Parents of Early swimmers, if you have not turned in your Registration Form, download it from this web-site and please bring it with you. I will be there to greet you and get you started with the new pool rules!
Team Practice and INFO
1.You must have your Registration forms in and your form about the upcoming meets in by the 10th of November. It is not enough to tell me or Peter about it, we need the form for insurance reasons.
2.You must see the Doctor, either Dr. Tabert or your own Dr. by the time we leave for the meet on the 20th. If you go to your own Dr. you must bring the ATTEST to Peter. Most of you are seeing your own Dr. because I have heard from very few people.
3.I need to know your class number and name of your teacher by Thursday the 5th of November or you won't be going on the meet. I won't chase you this year so get it in.
4.There will be a bus at school today, Tuesday November3rd, to take you to Krumme strasse. This bus leaves at 3:15, no later if you miss it you have to get to practice by yourselves. The bus will be available to you for a minimal fee. Please fill the bus, the more people the cheaper the price.

The pool at Krumme Strasse in Charlottenburg, is where will be until Hüttenweg re-opens all bright and shiny and clean next year.
Hopefully we can get through this year and will be back to normal before we know it!
Thank you for your patience in the matter of the pools, we have nothing to do with the choice of pools, the BBB and the ARGE have done this for us.
I have posted the meets on this web-site so you can start making plans.
For the Early Swimmers, and their parents. Please keep a good watch on your children in the water. Even if they have their SEAPFERDCHEN they are not able to save themselves if they get into difficulty. Not until they have a SILVER Medalian are they able to save themselves and even then it is never a good idea to let the children swim on their own. Always two or more and always under your watchful eye!! Thanks for supporting them by letting them continue to learn how to swim!!!!
More very soon.
