| Council Bluffs Swim Club Newsletter 12/29/2025 UPCOMING PRACTICE CHANGES NONE AS OF TODAY CBSC DIVE INTO 2026 - MEET CHANGE Unfortunately, we are changing our January meet to a 1 day meet. There will be no meet on Saturday, January 10!!! Sign up NOW!!!!! Job Sign Up also LIVE!! Hosting swim meets is the main way CBSC keeps monthly dues low and ensures that you don’t have to attempt to sell stuff to your friends and family that they don’t want anyway, as a way to raise money for the club!! We expect all parents to volunteer during any sessions your swimmers are competing in! All jobs are easy, and quite fun… plus, the view from the deck is way better than on the incredibly uncomfortable bleachers. Oh, and donuts, cookies and drinks provided for all volunteers! Concession stand workers - you WILL get to watch your swimmer race!!! Please email me if you have any questions about any of the jobs! Click on EVENTS and look for the GREEN box to click on that says JOB SIGNUP NEW EQUIPMENT REQUIREMENT We are asking that ALL GOLD I and II swimmers have their own snorkel. Please click HERE or HERE to purchase your snorkel ASAP! One is a link to the tried-and-true Finis snorkel on Swimoutlet.com and the other is a knock-off brand from Amazon. As long as the snorkel you purchase is this style (does not go to the side out of the mouth, rather straight up in front of the nose, and has a valve at the bottom) it does not matter what brand you buy.

CBSC Swim Caps Every swimmer gets 1 free CBSC Latex Cap. Please have your swimmer ask your coach!! SWIM MEET Expectations Just a couple reminders about swim meets
-
Please have your swimmer ready to get in at our designated warm up time. Don’t show up at that time, they need to be on the deck, cap and goggles on at that time!
-
Every CBSC swimmer should be wearing a YELLOW CBSC cap at meets. Silicone caps are available for purchase in the office, $15 each if you don’t want to use the latex cap provided to all swimmers. These can be billed to your account. You can also purchase additional latex caps for $10 each.
-
Swimmers need to talk to the CBSC coach on deck immediately before and immediately after each race!! This is the perfect time to gain feedback from their races!
