Hello All-

Tomorrow's swim meet is at Home!

The warm-up times are below:

6:15am-6:35am 11 & up

6:35am-6:50am 10 & under

The meet will start at 7:00 am.

Please bring healthy snacks for your swimmers. Here is a list of choices that I recommend.

Please make sure your swimmer has a cap and goggles and that the goggles are tightened for their race.

Bring Warm clothes and plenty of towels for your swimmer!

We will be using a buddy system for all meets. Here is the buddies list for the first meet. Immediately after warm-ups, each athlete will find their buddy/buddies and stick with them during the meet. They will make sure that they get to the heating area, cheer them on and make sure they come 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.

Make note of the attached files.

• The meet program. You may print the meet program for your use. 
• The second attached file is the BC entry list by swimmer's name. 
• **These are correct. Coaches want to make sure your swimmer knows their event number and event. You will see that relays are noted on this document. Relays will be identified with a letter and number. The letter identifies the group (A or B group) and the number identifies where they are swimming 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th in the relay. In the Medley relay, 1st is back, 2nd is breast, 3rd is fly, and 4th is free.  Feel free to put the events on inner arm if you would like to help your younger swimmer remember.

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!

I am so excited for tomorrow and remember, we are all there for the swimmers...to encourage, love and support them:)

Please feel free to reach out if you need anything clarified or have questions.

See you soon-
