HELLO SAILFISH!!!

We’ve got a busy weekend ahead of us, so let’s get straight to the information you need:

HOME MEET TOMORROW AGAINST WILLOW CREEK II AND HAMPDEN HEIGHTS

Our first home meet of the season is tomorrow. All the details you need are below or are in the attached documents. Please take a look!

• The the heat sheet for this meet is attached. You can also access the information for your swimmers on the Swimtopia app.
• At home meets, our team sets up under the pavilion and along the fence by the parking lot.
• There is ample street parking around the pool, we ask that families be courteous and avoid blocking driveways. That said, if you are able to walk to the meet, please do so. We’re expecting many visitors.
• For each event your swimmer is swimming, we need you to write EVENT - HEAT - LANE on their arm. This helps keep our heating crew happy and organized. Please read the attached “What to Expect…” document for more details and a picture.
• A note about POSITIVE behavior. Please help us uphold our team’s reputation as one of the most positive and supportive teams in the league. The Wahoos and the Hurricanes and their fans are our opponents and our guests.  We cheer on ALL swimmers. We shake hands with each other after races. We celebrate when we have succeeded, but do so with a kind heart and supportive spirit. Please note that according to league rules ONLY the parent representatives may petition for the reconsideration of a finishing time or call of stroke judge. Swimmers, Coaches, and Parents who do so may be expelled from a meet. Paul, Amy, and Molly will be around for the entire meet tomorrow. Please come see either of us if you have any concerns and we will take them to the appropriate person.
