To The Herald-Whig:
I have once again
had the pleasurable experience of attending a Sheridan Swim Club Firecracker
Invitational swim meet in Quincy. I would like to say thank you to all of the
Sheridan Swim Club officials and parents for organizing, planning and conducting
one of the greatest swim meets in Mid-America. They provide one of the greatest competitive athletic
events for our youth that these young people will ever know. What a positive experience and memory
our children will have of these wonderful summer days in Quincy. But, even more, I would like to compliment the
businesses, the community and the news media of Quincy for the great support
and friendship that you all display in making all of the swimming parents, friends, and relatives welcome in
your |
community. My
family, swim team, and their families were here three years ago for the swim
meet and we have never forgotten how friendly the people of Quincy were, so
we had to come back for this years meet. I assure you, well be planning many return trips in the
future years. Thanks
to everyone in Quincy for a great weekend of competitive swimming and a happy
experience for my family. We
appreciate your friendship. The
Blues Festival in Washington Park Friday evening was an added benefit for our
weekend enjoyment. We love, you
Quincy! Ken and Lucas Carpenter
