After much upheaval and disappointments, we didn't make the Moses Lake swim meet. However, we DID make the Pendleton meet. I don't know yet, but I suspect it will replace the Moses Lake meet for several reasons. First, it wasn't that much farther. We got in easily. It was a bigger pool. There is more to do in Pendleton, than in Moses Lake. Finally, when the coaches brought out the ribbons, it took three of them with huge fistfuls to hold them all. The kids were screaming hysterically with excitement. Apparently, historically we do not get many ribbons at Moses Lake...perhaps it's the way they set it up. At Pendleton, you were divided into two groups based on your previous times. So, you were competing with kids with similar talent. Made it a little easier for the kids to shine. It was really a great time for all.
