Thank you,

Dear BAC Alumni & Friends,

I would like to thank all of you who attended the alumni banquet on November 27^th 2009. I have heard from coaches, alumni and the banquet hall that the event was a tremendous success. This was the third such event Blue Streak has hosted and it was also our largest, with fifty plus attendees. The next alumni banquet is preliminarily scheduled for the Friday after Thanksgiving 2011. We are looking forward to an even larger turnout.

The current Blue Streak Board of Directors has placed an emphasis on the history of the club, the athletes, the times and the parents that preceded this generation and made the Berkeley Aquatic Club everything that it has become. The “Life After Berkeley” board has recently been updated. There is also a “Hall of Fame Wall” as well as team records boards for both short course and long course. Soon to be added is the Berkeley relay record board. We are also trying to feature an alumni article in each issue of the BAC “Splash Flash”. The alumni retrospectives have been real popular with the current athletes and parents.

 The team currently has two alumni coaching; Elissa Lavorerio(99) and Daryl Northrop(01). Elissa coaches age group athletes at Drew and Daryl assists Jim with the seniors and juniors. Post-Grad swimmer, Tristan Formon is currently the Head Age Group coach and has two of his own children in the program.

Anyone interested in writing an alumni article for the “Splash Flash” please contact me at chetlawson@optonline.net Your participation would be greatly appreciated.

We would like to encourage all alumni to join the Berkeley Aquatic Facebook page www.facebook.com  (Berkeley Aquatic Club).
