swim banquet

Last night was the end of season banquet for Eric's swim team.  The Eagle's Club sponsored the meal.
The 3 seniors and state title winners were all honored.  Team awards were handed out, as well as letter/pins for those who qualified.  We were just gushing with pride, as Eric was awarded the "Most Improved" award, and also earned a varsity letter in his first year of swimming!  Throughout the season, points are awarded for each practice attended, placing at meets, and times.  A minimum of 300 points is needed to letter, and Eric earned 300.5.  He was pretty excited.

 not the best pic, but there was team trivia.  One question was "Which member of the swim team has a twin brother?"
 Holding his Most Improved award and his Letter!  He wants a Letterman's jacket now

 Brazilian exchange student Matteus, who now holds the Mandan school record in the 200 IM and the 500 Free
