Good Evening Stingrays Families,

Congratulations on an outstanding win at our final A Meet of the season against McLean this past Saturday! We witnessed incredible performances in the pool and were truly impressed by the grit and determination shown by every swimmer. We’re incredibly proud of how our team has pushed through the season and finished strong.

As we shift into the Divisionals season, here are a few important updates for the week ahead:

Monday, July 14

Practice Activity- Tie-Dye Day! During or after each practice, we will be tie-dyeing shirts or socks. Please bring an item to join the fun!

We are excited to host this year's IM Carnival! Please note:

• Our All-Star relays who were unable to compete due to last week’s thunderstorms will swim before and after the main IM events. The Ravensworth All-Star relay team will also be participating.
• Come ready to cheer loudly and show your Stingray spirit!

Tuesday–Friday - Divisionals Practice

Practices this week will be limited to confirmed Divisionals swimmers and alternates only. We have already begun seeding for Divisionals and will finalize entries after the IM Carnival. If your swimmer is close to qualifying or is likely to serve as an alternate, they are welcome to attend Tuesday’s practice, and then we will confirm with them if they can continue attending after Tuesday.

Saturday, July 19 - Divisionals @Hunt Valley

We are proud to host the Divisionals Meet again this year. This is one of the most exciting events of the season, and we encourage all families to come out and support our team. Let’s finish the season with strong swims and high energy!

Sunday, July 20 - End-of-Season Banquet

Join us for one of the highlights of the season!

Time: 6:00 PM – 10:00 PM

Location: Hunt Valley Pool

We’ll enjoy desserts, present team awards (including the Matt Moore Award and Coaches’ Awards), and watch our end-of-season slideshow. Everyone is welcome to dress up for the occasion—and don’t forget a swimsuit for a late-night swim after the ceremony!

We are so proud of the enthusiasm, effort, and team spirit shown by our swimmers and families this season. Thank you for being an essential part of what makes the Stingrays so special.

Go Stingrays!
