Parents- The timeline and warm ups PDF has been posted on our site for the meet this weekend. Please take note that the afternoon session warm ups will start at the conclusion of the morning session or at 11:00 am. whichever is later. The current timeline shows the morning ending around noon which would push the actual finish time of the meet back to 6:00 and 6:30 on Saturday and Sunday. All swimmers should arrive at least 20 minutes prior to their warm up times. 
We will be pulling ALL circle in sheets 45 minutes before the start of the meet. Any swimmer not circled in will not be placed in their event. 

Where to Sit - Pop up tents are encouraged for outside the fence line. Parents not working the meet are restricted to the spectator area roped off (this is not permanent seating) near the diving boards. If you are able to bring a pop up tent for use through out the swim meet please email me directly. 

Swimmer Drop Off- All swimmers will need to enter through the exterior gate located near the tennis courts. We will open the gate at 7:55 for warm ups. Only meet prep personnel will be allowed in the gate prior to 7:55 am. On Friday night there will not be a drop off area next to the pool due to the SYAP programs pick up. On Saturday and Sunday there is a quick drop off point right at the start of the fence for tents and swimmers. Parking is in the West Lot 1 and North Lot for this meet and is pay parking. 

There will be concessions and grilling for food options but as always I would pack with a long day in mind.

Volunteer - As a RICE Aquatics hosted meet we are always in need of volunteers to help make the meet runs smoothly. If you are volunteering a complete email with description and layout of the pool will be emailed out later tonight. The complete list of job sign ups will be posted inside the swimmer lounge. If you are not working and would like to come inside the fence line please sign up for an empty slot posted on this sheet. 

Coolers and Drink Drop Off - If you are donating a cooler or drinks please drop those off at the pool at tonights practice. If carrying is an issue you can drop them off at the side gate nearest the pool and I will come around after practice and collect all of the items.

A couple essential jobs we are still in need of at this time.

Gate Monitor - Due to our agreement with the REC Center we must have a parent set up at the gate to help monitor who is coming and going in the facility.

Concession Sales - We need at least 2 people at the table at all times. Randy Schawe is cooking out for us and will need assistance with orders, grilling. etc.

ICE -  WIth the heat we will need a tone of ICE to keep all the water and drink cold for officials, help store hospitality items. We will also need to keep the meat fresh for the grilling being done. Looking to fill all the ICE jobs for the AM and will need replenishing for those arriving in the PM sessions.

Clerk of Course - We will need someone at this table for all the times listed. This is where on deck entries are taken and relay cards handed out.

See you at the pool,
Coach Jason
