Fun Stuff
We work hard at practice and meets...don't we deserve a little fun?!?
Of course!!!
Mustang Mania
Our season kickoff event! Come meet your coaches, do a ice breaker/activity with others in your age group and walk through where to go and what to do when you come to practice! Team Managers have both Returning Parent and New Parent Meetings during the event.
Pancake Breakfast
On the First Friday of the season, we have a Pancake Breakfast to celebrate all of our swimmers' hard work during the first week of practice!
Donuts & Ribbons - Thursdays following Meets
AFTER practice on the morning after each meet, the kids will be able to pick up their ribbons they received from the meet. At that time, a sweet treat will be available to enjoy. Unfortunately, there will not be any options for those kiddos that have special dietary needs so you may want to send something special to practice with them.
Mustang Market - Select Fridays throughout the season
Throughout the season, each swimmer can earn Mustang Money (plastic coins) from the Coaches for things such as: attitude, effort, good manners, being on time, challenging themselves, supporting a fellow swimmer, Mustang spirit, and even for silly things like, being a good dancer or just being a good kid! If a Coach would like to reward a swimmer for any of these things as well as others, they will put a coin in the swimmers Mustang Market pocket. On Fridays, the Mustang Market will open where the kids can use their Mustang Money to purchase snacks, drinks, small trinket items (similar to what you might find at a Chuck E. Cheese). They can also save up their money to be able to purchase bigger ticket items. No worries though. If a swimmer doesn't have enough Mustang Money, they will have the opportunity to purchase snacks and drinks with their more official US dollars and coins.
Teen Nights - Select Mondays throughout the season
Teens swimmers (age 13-18 or have completed 7th grade) also have optional Monday night practices coupled with poolside dinner & show!
Tentative Teen Night Dates: June 6, June 13, June 20, June 27 and July 11
Family Movie Night - Date: TBA
We have done movies poolside and drive-in style in the past, but for the 2022 season, the plan is to do a movie in the fields by TCE! This event is for all Mustangs, as well as all residents of Mills Farm!
Splash of Orange: Mustang End of Season Celebration - Date: TBA
Typically scheduled for the Sunday evening after our Saturday Championship Meet, the Mustangs gather to celebrate the wrap up of the season in the Blue Valley Southwest Commons for a banquet-style event. Dress in white, with a 'splash of orange' and be sure to get photos with your family and Mustang teammates in front of our Mustang step and repeat! Dinner, friends, awards and the end of season video are just some of the highlights!
