The Swim-A-Thon was a ton of fun for everyone that participated ! Although we don't have a final count as to how much money we raised, we look forward to doing another one next year giving us the opportunity to raise even more money. Thanks to everyone who made this event possible. Without all of our supporters, the event would not have run as smoothly as it did. We are so happy to have had the opportunity to put on this wonderful event. Check out the leaderboard to find your swimmers donations! There is still time to add in any last minute donations!

What a successful fundraiser! I don't have exact numbers but approx 100 guests attended. Our swimmers were great and showed up ready to work. Thanks everyone for helping out. We have an awesome team and parents!!
Don't forget the swim-a-thon. More fundraising! Remember to pass the link to family and friends to donate online. If you have money in hand you can turn into John and Anna at any time. Go go go! Don't forget to sign up for the Flyers fundraiser breakfast next Saturday! We need 4 more swimmers from 8-9am and 5 more from 10-11! There are a lot of active swimmers that are not signed up to help, it's only an hour, please come help support our team! Thanks!
www.signupgenius.com signupgenius.com By Chris Rosenbloom//PhD, RDN, CSSDMarch is National Nutrition Month…
But for Swimmers every month should be Nutrition Month. Here are 17 nutrition tips for swimmers in 2017: 1. Stop making excuses for not eating healthfully to support training and competition. 2. Eat breakfast, every day, no exceptions. 3. Fix healthy snacks and take them to school or the pool. 4. Eat seafood at least twice a week to get healthy omega-3 fats. 5. Be good to your gut; eat yogurt or drink kefir. 6. Don’t ditch dairy; milk and cheese are nutrient-rich. 7. Go meatless a couple of times a week and enjoy plant-based meals. 8. Beans are a great substitute for meat, so try a bean burrito instead of a beef-filled burrito. 9. Expand your palate…try one or two new foods each week. 10. Eat more fresh fruit for the fiber, water, and nutrients. 11. Enjoy anti-oxidant rich foods to protect working muscles (pomegranate or tart cherry juce, green tea, berries, and other colorful fruits and vegetables) 12. Recover with carbohydrate and protein: chocolate milk, peanut butter or a turkey sandwich. 13. Don’t be fat-phobic; use healthy fats like olive oil, canola oil, or soft-tub spreads. 14. Refuel with quality carbs to replace muscle glycogen: pasta, rice, potatoes, whole grain breads and cereals. 15. Rethink your drink; steer clear of soft-drinks and replace with nutrient-rich juices or water. 16. Hydrate during practice; just because you are surrounded by water doesn’t mean you don’t need to drink water. 17. See a registered dietitian nutritionist who is also an expert in sports nutrition to customize a meal plan for you. BHBC Flyers Buffet Breakfast Fundraiser is March 18th from 8-11am. I'm attaching a sign-up-genius so we can make sure all shifts are covered. This fundraiser is to raise money so our swimmers can attend our local Swim Camp June 2-4th at little or no cost to our parents. Time slots are only 1 hour, please fill them up! Thanks!
