Practice Changes
Check here for any last minute practice changes. If you haven't already, please also give us your e-mail address (send to sritsema@riptide.org or register above) so that we may provide you with all the important Riptide updates.   
Riptide Post Office Box
PO Box 382, Rockford MI 49341 is available for Riptide correspondence, registrations and session invoice remittance.  
Practice Cancellation Policy
As with all weather situations, we will post a notice to the website and also send an e-mail out in the event we have a cancellation. The standing policy according to Rockford Community Services, which we are part of, is that when school is closed, Riptide does not have practice. On occasion Varsity sports reevaluates conditions later in the day and reopens the facilities for the evening. This may cause some confusion as it does not necessarily affect Riptide. In the event that we are informed we may have a practice on a school cancellation day, that too will be posted as soon as possible.
Illnesses
If you are too sick to go to school, you should not go to practice. Also, get the homework assignments and lessons caught up before returning to practice.  
Picking up from Practices
Parents, for those of you who are picking up your children after practices curbside, especially the late practices at the HS pool, we need you to be there to pick up your swimmers within 5-10 minutes of the end of practices. We are pushing to get kids out of the showers quickly to get them home. Please call the pool (NRMS 863-6316 option "5", or, RHS 863-6042) and have the pool staff let the Riptide Coaches know if you are running late.
