First meet in the books for our RMEA Riptide Guppies! 🐟➡️🦈

From nervous smiles on the blocks to big finishes at the wall, you showed what Riptide spirit looks like. We’re so proud of every splash, cheer, and personal best.

And a round of applause for Guppies of the Week: Payton and Artie! Thanks for bringing the energy, effort, and encouragement all week long.
