Since our town pool, which is being re-built, is still under construction, the meets are all away at the home pools of opposing teams. I printed out the schedule for Julia, so that she could write the events and locations in on the calendar in her room.
Apparently our town is not the only one whose pool is unavailable this summer; next week, we have two meets, both at locations other than the home team's pool. One is scheduled to be held at a nearby town's High School pool, while the other one is listed as "TBD."
JULIA: Mommy? Will they still time our events at the meet against Newton?
ME: I think so.
JULIA: Because it's not at the Newton pool, it's at TBD. And I don't know where TBD is.
ME: Uh...TBD just means "To Be Determined." It's not the name of a pool or a town.
JULIA: Oh! I didn't KNOW that!
Well, now she knows. I will update you readers next week on how our swimmers do swimming in the town of TBD!
