  • If you notice any pool facilities that need attention, please let a board member know so we can address it.
• Meet conclusion: As the sun goes down we will start taking tents down, please jump in and assist where needed. Your help putting the pool back the way we found it is greatly appreciated!

What to Bring

• Plenty of water to stay well hydrated and healthy snacks. The concession stand will be open and will sell pizza, Chick-Fil-A sandwiches and usual concession snacks.
• Sunscreen
• Activities/Games to keep your swimmer occupied between events.
• Lawn chairs as pool chairs are snatched up quickly

Parent Volunteers

• WE HAVE A FEW VOLUNTEER SHIFTS TO FILL - PLEASE STEP UP IF YOU ARE ABLE.
• Please check in at the purple tent on the area between pools. Check in when you arrive so that we know you are here (even if you aren't on until 2nd half). 1^st shift volunteers help during Events 1-34 and 2^nd shift volunteers help during Events 35-70. Relay Stroke Judges help only during relays.
• If you are unable to make your shift, please find your own replacement. If you are running late or have other questions about your shift, please contact Amy at [email protected].
• THANK YOU for your hard work in the heat! We can not do this without you.

We appreciate your help and patience this season! The most important thing is that your swimmers have fun and are good sports.
