Meet Reminders 5/30
Reminders for the meet today:
1. Please have your swimmer arrive at 3:30pm regardless of when their first event is. They need to report directly to their bullpen to check in with their coaches. Each age group will have a tent (bullpen) where the swimmer should stay for the duration of the meet. If you need to take your swimmer to the bathroom or for concessions, please notify the bullpen parent so they know where your swimmer is. Bullpen parents should plan to stay for the entirety of the meet and clean up with the exception of 6 and unders who are finished after event 36.
2. Parents are not allowed behind the blocks. We have 2 deck managers this season who will ensure that each swimmer is lined up correctly for their events. Having extra parents behind the block creates confusion so please enjoy the swimming from spectator areas.
3. If your swimmer was at practice this morning, they should have their arms marked with their events. You can trace over it before coming to the meet this afternoon. Please also put your swimmers first name and last initial on their back as well as their age. See attached pictures for example of arm marking and name on the back.
4. The theme is NEON so wear your brightest colors and show some fin’s spirit.
5. Remember to pack extra goggles, swim caps, towels, water, snacks, and activities for your swimmer. You may also want to pack an extra blanket, towel, or chair for your swimmer to sit on. The meet will be about 4 hours long. Please also apply sunscreen before arriving.
6. If your swimmer would like to sing the national anthem before the meet tonight, please email us and let us know.
Looking forward to a great meet! Let’s go Fins!
Katherine & Dana
