Swim Season 2011
This is a bittersweet time for Ramona Swim as this is the last swim season in our current pool, which has been the home of over 35 years of swim and water polo here at Ramona. This December, demolition of the old pool and construction of our new facility(featured to the left) will begin, meaning that come springtime 2012 we will be going elsewhere for practice while at home we watch as our exciting new facility comes to life. Thank you to everyone who has help make Ramona Aquatics something to be proud of, and thank you also to your continued dedication to our program and our kids.

SWIM!
It's swim season already, and we've already had 2 weeks of practice. Luckily, these were pre-season practices and it is not too late to join.
Here in the beginning of spring season we spend our time laying solid skill-foundations for the successes that we all work toward at League finals and CIF competitions. We also are looking to set the foundation of behavior, commitment, and responsibility to Family, school and team.
Wednesday, February 23 is the Spring Sports Parent/Coach meeting at 6pm in the gymnasium. Parents, please make sure you are there so that we can be clear about our programs expectations for your kids, and we can work together for the development of your child into the kind of young adult we can all be proud of.
Thanks, and we'll see you at the pool :)

Girls Polo and Saturday's Big Fundraiser!
Congratulations to the Girls Polo team who took 14th place in the silver bracket at the Ayala tournament over the holiday break. Lisa Crowley and Nina Bardales have emerged as our leading scorers along with several of the girls having scored goals, including first year player Alyssa Garcia. Our goalkeeper, Veronica Avalos, is stepping up providing huge blocks and an excellent arm to feed the counter attack. We have our second league games this week against La Sierra on Friday and this Saturday our JV team is entered in the King Tournament for the second year in a row, looking to capitalize on the skills of Alyssa Garcia, Dakota Ornelas and Marena Ortiz with Katie Petrillo in the goal.
Good Luck Ladies!
VERY IMPORTANT EVENT!!! This Saturday January 8, is our HUGE fundraiser event where we are working to collect donations for our goodwill drive. Click on the flyer for more information. From 8 am to 2pm Ramona Aquatics, Softball and Baseball will be working together to fill as many storage containers as possible with our donations to Goodwill. With your help, our booster club could make THOUSANDS of dollars to improve our program for the kids. So tell your friends, family and co-workers to come Saturday and donate to the Goodwill. See you there!

Closing out League, Stepping up to CIF, and Girls warm up for Winter Play
Congratulations once again to the Varsity Boys on their second defeat of the La Sierra Eagles last week, and continued thanks to all our supporters from both friends and family who came out last Wednesday and have come out steadily to cheer and enjoy the games this season.
Also, check out the Press Enterprise write up from last week about Ramona Boys Polo.
This Weekend we are taking our freshmen and sophomore boys to the annual El Dorado Frosh/Soph championship tournament in Orange County, after snatching a last-minute spot on the tournament schedule. We have a sizable group of talented underclassmen this year and this is an exciting and competitive event where they can show exactly what they are made of against other teams of their age group.
THIS SUNDAY CIF will release the tournament schedule for next week. CLICK HERE to check for updates.
Girls Water Polo will be warming up with practices coming soon. Check with Coach Woodward (email: awoodward@rusd.k12.ca.us) for more information.
