Important Information for remaining meets
Thank you for a fabulous 1st meet! We appreciate all your flexibility and willingness to help out. We have some important updates and reminders - please read this email carefully. There is a tennis meet during our swim meet. Please remind the kids that they can’t be on the tennis courts or Tennis Pavillion. If you did not bring in your drinks for concessions, please bring them ASAP. The list is below if you have forgotten what to bring.
Parking - Parking is still limited to handicap, tennis, and coaches.
Parents - We are happy to welcome you to sit on the parent deck for the meet. We ask that (unless you are volunteering) you stay between the parent deck and the baby pool. If your swimmers need you, a coach or the swimmer can come over to you. The first session is more crowded, please limit the number of extra people you bring to the meet. Please make sure that any guests that come with you also follow meet policies - we appreciate YOU!
1st session - Guppy swim will be at 5:55. CHANGE: There is no food allowed in the bullpen area. If the kids need to eat, they can eat near the concession area. The coaches need to be able to find the kids at all times for races and for safety. Please do not take the swimmers out of the bullpen/concession area without talking to their coach.
2nd session - Swimmers and families should not enter the pool area until 7:30 or until you see the first session empty out. This allows our first session to leave and our coaches to be ready to receive the 2nd group. CHANGE: There is no food allowed in the bullpen area. If the kids need to eat, they can eat near the concessions area. Many of our coaches are also swimming, older kids are responsible for getting themselves to their races. Please remind them of this responsibility. Parents of this session, please help us make sure the area is clean and return furniture to the proper place.
13-18 year old practice - Friday Fun practice will start at 8:25 so you can sleep in a bit after the meet.
Important Dates:
June 28th is our last meet. We host a glow swim after the last meet as an end of season celebration. If your child wants to participate and they are in the 1st session, they should plan to return at 10pm (I will send an alert on Swimtopia when we get toward the end of the meet). We swim for 1 hour. Bring glow items to share :)
Tentative Date: July 13th will be Awards Night and Ice Cream Social. More details to come!
