TIMELINE FOR SATURDAY 

It is VERY IMPORTANT that you arrive on time for your volunteer shift. Especially Tent Parents so kids can get checked in and be ready for warm-ups. 

Parents are not allowed to sit in their kids tents due to not enough room for all the swimmers to sit and have space. Some of the age group tents are very packed. Please bring items to sit on your own. 

Upon arrival if you are volunteering, check in at the Volunteer table. ALL volunteers must check in at the volunteer table before the swim meet begins. Once checked in, take your swimmer to his/her designated tent and check him/her in with the Tent Parent. 

PLEASE NOTE: If you are not signed up for a shift but want to volunteer to take over a shift for someone that may not have shown please be sure to check in at the volunteer table first. We need to make sure we have you as the designated volunteer for that specific shift. 

If you are not able to fulfill your volunteer shift please email the Volunteer Coordinator at [email protected]
