Meet June 17
Tomorrow's swim meet is at Columbine Knolls!!
The warm-up times are below:
6:00am-6:20am 11 & up
6:20am-6:40am 10 & under. **All 6-under swimmers will NOT warm-up for the meet.
The meet will start at 7:00 am.
Parents, please bring sweats, blankets, sleeping bag towels and dry clothes- it is supposed to be cool.
Please bring healthy snacks for your swimmers.
Please make sure your swimmer has a cap and goggles and that the goggles are tightened for their race.
We will be using a buddy system for all meets. Here is the buddies list for the meet.
Immediately after warm-ups, the team will meet and each athlete will find their buddy and stick with them during the meet. The coaches will help the buddies pair up-
**Please check the buddy list and make sure your swimmer has a buddy- Tell your buddy the name/names of their buddy so they can start thinking about it now.
Buddies will make sure that they get to the heating area, cheer them on, and make sure they come to see the coaches before and after each race. Please encourage your swimmer to participate in the buddy system. It really helps us connect as a team and get to know each other as well as have team spirit!
There will be a heating area. Heating is where swimmers report before they swim their race. There will be an announcer calling the first call for an event and the last call for an event. Please send your swimmer over to the heating area when you hear the first call. Coaches will review this with all the swimmers in the morning.
**All swimmers must tell the coaches they are leaving the meet when they complete all of their races.
We have not received the heat sheet for the meet yet, but I will send it if we get it tonight!
The SwimTopia App will also contain your child's individual events, relays, and work shifts for this meet. The App is available from Google Play Store or Apple's App Store. We are hoping that you can follow the events and heats from this app.
If you are running late to the meet or can not come to the meet, please text me ASAP!
Please feel free to reach out if you need anything clarified or have questions.
So excited to see the swimmers swimming great stroked and dropping time!
Thank you for the dedication you make for the team and your swimmers- it means so much!
Always remember, we are all there for the swimmers...to encourage, love and support them:)
See you in the morning-pray for NO RAIN or lightning!
LET'S GO BEARS!
