(For regular meet swimmers participating in Champs)

We hope everyone is taking some time to rest up for tomorrow--it's going to be a fun and exciting day!  Feel free to deck out the family in Wynfield Waves attire and anything blue. The coaches have some fun attire planned, and we would love to see our waves families joining in the fun!

In addition to everything you need to know about tomorrow, I am attaching heat sheets, timelines, and the individual entry sheets.  A note about the timeline: we are hopeful that we will be able to move more quickly than the computer is estimating. Additionally, the 5 minute breaks that are listed are going to be informal long pauses in the meet, and may not be a full 5 minutes long. 

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to email ([email protected]). If there are any last minute entry changes, please text coach Tiffany at 252-315-5676 as early as possible. 

We cannot wait to see you all tomorrow!
