Good Afternoon PTS Family!
As we get closer to the season, newsletter communication will start coming on a weekly basis and it will be packed full of information for the following week. Please make sure you are getting our emails and reading them thoroughly. This one is going to have A LOT of information.
The Board will be hosting two options for parent meetings via Google Meet:
May 24th at 10am
May 26th at 7pm
Please put one of these dates on your calendar as we will be going over the season in detail and answering your questions!
Information will be on the website (https://members.tigersharks.us/), Facebook, Twitter, Instagram as well and is subject to change.

Spirit Wear

This fundraiser allows us to provide the best experience for your swimmer, plus fun activities like Donuts for Breakfast, an end of the season banquet and more.
- Order your gear today to receive by mid June.
- There are so many options this year, definitely something for everyone.
- Remember, your registered swimmer gets a FREE team t-shirt, but as my kids told me, "Mom, we also need sweatshirts and sweatpants, and oh that tank would look great on you."
- Last day to order is June 3rd. Items will be handed out during practices.
