Swim Meet info:

Make sure you declare that you will/will not be at each meet before the registration deadline. Registration for meets is not allowed after the deadline and exceptions will not be made. Coaches have very little time between the sign-up deadline and meet day to organize, so adding swimmers last minute isn't possible. 

If you declare that you are coming to the meet, but something comes up and you aren't able to come, please contact Coach GraceAnne at least 24 hours before the start of the meet so she can make the necessary changes. We understand that emergencies happen, so if you find out you cannot attend a meet the day of, call or text Coach GraceAnne and let her know ASAP. Please do not wait!

Swim meets last about 4 hours so be prepared!

What to bring:

• Cap, goggles, and swimsuit
• Water and snacks 
• Multiple Towels
• Lawn chairs
• Sharpie Marker (for writing events on arm)
• Sunscreen
• Extra clothes/jacket
• Blankets
• Activities while waiting for events

Home Meets:

Get to the meet 15 minutes before warmups start (5:15 PM)

Write your swimmers race information with sharpie on their arm (optional) include race #, heat, lane, stroke, and distance they have to swim
