Swim Caps Update
We’re working on refunding everyone who ordered the team logo caps. If you haven’t yet picked up your replacement (non-logoed) cap, I will have them with me at tonight’s meet.
MEET EXPECTATIONS & REMINDERS:
- Swimmers must arrive in a swimsuit, and have a cap, goggles, and towel.
- Please mark your swimmer’s arm with their events before the meet using a black Sharpie. How to Write Events on Your Swimmer
- Swimmers must remain on the pool deck during the meet (except for restrooms or concessions). It’s very difficult to find swimmers when it’s time to line up if they’ve left the area.
- Keep track of your belongings and avoid accidentally taking others’ items.
- Be respectful to teammates, coaches, and volunteers.
- Listen for your events, line up promptly, cheer for your teammates, and show great sportsmanship!
- Family and friends must stay in the spectator area during the meet. Swimmers may visit spectators, but guests should not be in the team area.
- Please clean up your area before leaving!!
Thanks for staying on top of all the updates! Looking forward to a great week!
