• Water
• Deck chairs for the adults

*REMINDER: NO GLASS CONTAINERS ALLOWED ON DECK

AT THE MEET:

• Please help your child set up a space in our team area. We really need parental support for this. It is very important that swimmers sit together to support each other and to make sure they don't miss an event.
• Help keep our team area clean. ALL swimmers should help clean up our team area before leaving.
• Volunteers will check in at table at the pool entrance. ALL timers (1st and 2nd session) need to attend the timers meeting that happens prior to the start of the meet.
• Concessions available include: Pizza, chicken tenders, hot dogs, chips and candy. Payments accepted are cash and venmo.  The Kona Ice Truck will be at the meet and once it leaves ice cream will be available for purchase.
• Please DO NOT leave if your swimmer is in a relay. If a swimmer must leave early, please notify Coach Tiffany or Coach Kristina as soon as possible so that we try to prevent scratching relays.

Marking your swimmer:

Mark the arm as illustrated below in the picture in the order of Event/Heat/Lane/Relay Leg. Write on clean dry skin with no sunscreen. It is best to do this the night before in order to minimize sunscreen washing it away.

• Find your child’s race information on the Heat Sheets, the entry sheets, or the SwimTopia App.
• Label your swimmers with a black sharpie with their race details.
• On their forearm, mark their event information: (See further below for Stroke labels)

(E = event, H = heat, L = lane). For relays, add a slash followed by the position on the relay after the lane# (1, 2, 3 or 4)

Another option:

A note about weather: We are crossing our fingers that we are able to make it through the season without weather interrupting our meets, but want to share weather pertinent information with you just in case!  

1-Please make sure you are on the remind app. If we need to adjust times during the meet because of weather, that will be our first and immediate form of communication.  Please keep in mind the following:

2-In the event of a thunder delay, swimmers and spectators are allowed to stay on the deck but not in the water.

3-In the event of lighting, it is possible that we will be asked to clear the deck. If that happens, we will ask families to wait in their cars until either the storm has passed or we have made a final decision to cancel the event.
