Hello all,

It’s Championship Week! A Champs is one of the best meet experiences. I’m really excited to bring a team there to swim fast, work together, and have fun! This is what we have been working towards, and it’s finally time to see our hard work pay off!

At this point, we cannot make changes to the individual entries. All swimmers are listed as swimmers or alternates for the relays. The coaches will pick the relays and they may differ between prelims and finals.

We need workers every shift, and all families should sign up to work 1 shift. The jobs are timing (no experience necessary) and safety Marshall (no experience necessary). Both of these jobs will have you on the deck the entire time. An example of something the safety Marshall would do is sit at the entrance to the deck and make sure only swimmers, coaches, and volunteers are on deck. Alternatively, the marshals may roam the deck to ensure people are being safe. Job sign-up opens and 12am today.
