Throw Back Thursday!

The summer months are a little quiet around The Haven. We have summer classes going on, a lot of activity on the river, and of course a Haven favorite the Ice Shack.

By all accounts, our women are hard at work with their summer workouts, and what better motivation than the past. We have an amazing set of archives on this team blog, and for the remainder of the summer we will have “Throw Back Thursday” every week. It will range from major accomplishments in the pool to some out of pool fun times. There are many moments documented here from both categories, and we’re going to get going with our first one.

2013 College Graduates would be Seniors in high school

This Year’s Incoming Freshmen Class would be 13 years old

We recently had our first team building activity. As previously mentioned our team is full of super new faces and we (as a team & coaches) are putting an emphasis on some early team building so the women will get to know each other before the “fun” begins. (fun being practice).
The afternoon started with some free time then we proceeded to have a “cook out” complete with Kentucky Fried Chicken. After the meal we did some name game type of activities. Which included the women writing some an interesting fact about themselves on an index card, which was then collected and read allowed and the team had to guess who’s fact it was. Some of the highlights include a standing back flip, freakishly double jointed shoulders, a whitewater rafting trip and almost being arrested.
The evening concluded with an old fashion egg toss…good stuff.
