Swim Team Banquet

To finish off the swim season, our swim team holds a banquet and gives out awards to all the kids.  They also give out 4 "special" awards. Leyton won the "100% effort" award.  This was awarded to the kid that came to practice and always gave 100%.

I didn't get many pictures but I thought it would be nice to post one of him getting his award. 
If you look REALLY closely you can see him!

We can't wait until next season too!  Redding will be on the swim team next year. 
This should be interesting...

Michael Phelps has nothing on us!

Leyton joined our neighborhood swim team this year.  He made leaps and bounds in his swimming ability.  At the beginning of the season, he could barely swim 5 yards without struggling.  Now, he is swimming the length of the pool.  He knows all of his swim strokes but he does not like backstroke.  Leyton competed in 3 of the 6 swim meets and he even won a heat in
one of his meets.
 

Patiently waiting for the meet to start


Listening to instructions


Ready to go!

Yay!  Go Leyton!
