Bring your prepared t-shirts to your practice along with the bag.  After their practice, we will dye shirts in the backyard.  We suggest to wear an old tshirt to protect their suits from dye.  We will provide everything they need to dye their shirts.  You will take home the shirts and let it sit in the bag for 24 hours then follow the directions on how to rinse and wash the shirt.  Everyone should be able to wear their new shirts to the first meet on the 15th.  

IF YOU HAVE A SWIMMER WHO ATTENDS THURSDAY NIGHT PRACTICE:  bring your shirts that night to practice and they can dye their shirt after practice.  

NOT ABLE TO MAKE EITHER AM OR PM PRACTICE?:  Give Heather or Stacy your swimmers PREPARED shirt in the bag and someone will dye it for them.  They can pick up the shirt on Friday.
