Hello MVMers, here’s what’s coming up:
A word from our MVM board president: Our Annual Member Meeting will be held on Saturday, Feb 3. This year we will be voting by paper ballot on deck during “Swim-n-Schmear.” If you plan to swim the 6:00, 7:00 or 8:00 AM, please take a moment to vote.With bagels and coffee provided, we encourage you to stick around for a bite and some socializing as well.
As usual, we will vote to approve the election of directors to the board, the 2023 annual report, and the 2024 budget. These documents will be available to review starting Jan 26, poolside. Please take a look should you wish to do so prior to voting.
While our bylaws do not permit voting by proxie, please contact me if you have concerns and are unable to attend the vote.
Thanks, and I look forward to serving you this term!

Swim-n-Schmear: See above. Mark your calendar for the upcoming swim-n-schmear during and after practice on Saturday, February 3rd.
February Fitness Challenge: The February Fitness Challenge is just around the corner. Earn points for swimming workouts, pulling covers, and participating in sanctioned USMS events. Your points will turn into MVM Bucks to be used at the February Fitness Auction, which will probably be held in April. The exact date is TBD.
Health!: Courtesy of our returning member, Brian Davis, is an article from the Oct-Nov 2023 issue of the USMS magazine “Swimmer”. See attached. Interesting information about swimmers and a healthy gut. For your enjoyment only. There is no test at the end of the semester. Here’s to great health in 2024 – and beyond. Thank you Brian.
Pets!: Our fabulous keeper of the display case, Martha Branch, is starting a new project – pets! If you wish, send me a picture of your pet and it will most likely end up in the display case at the pool. Include your pet’s name.
Happy swimming, MVM
