FAST Pictures!
Nikki is still working on editing our pictures for us. There are a lot of swimmers and she needs to edit every one of them, so please be patient as it will probably take another 2-3 weeks. There were some sneak peaks shared on her facebook page if you would like to see what they are going to look like, but again, she is going to need some time to finish the rest.
We also have pictures that our very own Michele Benoit takes every year! Michele is a swim mum as well as a talented photographer, and she has done many of our team pictures in previous years. Michele takes all the pictures you find on the photos page on our website, and she does it all for free :) There are some from meets, past Swim-a-thons, practices, etc., so please take a look and see if you can find your swimmer(s) among the pictures! And if you would like to say thank you to Michele, we take donations for her on the website!
A special thanks to Michele for continuing to do this, as well as for organizing our FAST photo day with Nikki Jay. A lot of work when into organizing all the groups and facility times to one day that worked for most families. We really appreciate it Michele!
As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to reach out.
Talk soon,
Britt
