July 15th Home Meet VS Kingswood Klams
Happy Sunday Night Gators!
I said happy inferno last week, well....this week said hold my beer. HOLY MOLY it's going to be toasty. PLEASE hydrate hydrate hydrate and make sure you have shade.
Becuase of the rain we need you to hold off setting tents up until after 12PM tomorrow so the grass can get cut.
This is our LAST HOME MEET. WHOA.
VIDEOS: If you happen to take any good videos at the swim meet, Dhiren is setting up a folder where you can share them to be included in our end of year video!
We have volunteer holes that must be filled, so the jobs for this meet have been opened (info below).
Athlete Arrival: 4:30 PM for wam-ups - swimmers ONLY may set up their personal items on the swim deck. If your child is old enough, we prefer for the kids to all be on deck with the coaches during the meet. Our swimmers set up under the trellis thingy where all the round tables are. Please be sure event information is written on hands! If you don't know what this means, the coaches will help your first time Gator at practice or before the meet.
Spectator Tent/Chair Set Up: Parents and spectators set up in the field. PLEASE DO NOT SET YOUR TENT UP DIRECTLY AGAINST THE FENCE - WE NEED A WALKING PATH. If you do, we will ask you to move. Also, our team needs the outlets for gear set up so any fans you bring need to battery operated.
Volunteers: You will be checking in up at the clubhouse this year where the scoring table is located (through the middle doors that lead down to the pool). Please check in at least 30 minutes PRIOR to the start of the meet, even if you are a second session volunteer (or at least let me know that you may be checking in late).
VOLUNTEER NEEDS:
We aren't looking too shabby this week, but we DO STILL NEED:
- TIMERS for second session
- Clerk of Course second session
- Scoring for second session - come join me in the the lovely A/C.
Thank you in advance for signing up and getting these spots filled so we can start the meet on time.
Set Up Crew: Please find me (Cassie) when you arrive at the pool at 3:30PM - I will have a set up list for you to use.
Timers/Sweeps Judges: please listen for the timers meeting to be called about 15 minutes before the start of the meet. If you are a first session timer, please do NOT leave until the second session person has relieved you. If someone doesn't show, we will find them. Second session timers, please do not leave your first session timer hanging!
First Session Concessions People: Please go to concessions by 4:30PM. Those swimmers come in HUNGRY after warm ups.
Second Session People: We switch jobs over after breaststroke (event 30) - please be paying attention and be ready to take over for the first session peeps.
Additional Reminders:
Trash: Please make sure you and your athlete pick up ALLLLLL the trash around you and them before you take off for the night.
Sunscreen / Bug Spray: YOU WILL NEED IT YOU WILL WANT IT.
Bathrooms: The please do not use the inside bathroom in the clubhouse does actually mean that....unless you are volunteering to come back and clean those bathrooms the next day. Thank you for using the outside bathrooms.
See you at the swamp and GO GATORS!!
