Only Read if going to Champs!
Hey Wahoos!
Saturday we are hosting Champs! If your swimmers qualified for Champs please read this email carefully.Here is what you need to know:
Friday- If you would like to set up a tent or mark a space with some chairs, you can enter the Cook Creek Pool area beginning at 6:45 pm. The pool is open to patrons until 7pm and our team must not interfere with their use. Any tents/chairs set up prior to 6:45pm may be removed/relocated. Please share tents! There will not be room for every family to put up a tent. Please check the pool deck layout as it has changed for Champs with 6 teams participating. The pool deck layout is on the event page: https://www.
Swimmers- Get plenty of rest and be sure to stay hydrated! It is supposed to be 80 and sunny so lots of sunscreen will be necessary! Make sure you have extra clothes, towels and sunscreen.
Warm Ups- Please arrive @6:15am, swimmers need to be ready to jump in the pool at 6:30am. 6:30-6:45 warm ups for 11& over with 6:45-6:55 10& under. 6:53 - cheer! As the host, we take the first warm up shift. This will provide enough time for you to check in at the front Check In Table, find a spot to sit and locate and put on cap and goggles without feeling rushed and chaotic.
Check In - Volunteers and Swimmers need to check in at the Wahoos team table at the entrance to the pool. Relays- If your child is participating in the first relays of the meet (The Medley Relays, Events #5 - #14), PLEASE have them to the Heating Area by 7:50am. These relays start very quickly and gathering all the kids is not an easy task. We want our coaches coaching and cheering on our swimmers, we don't want them walking around looking for kids. Your help is greatly appreciated!!
Meet Program- The Meet Program and Entries by Athlete will be posted on the website on Friday. Look for the program on the Events page. Also, meet results will be posted on Sunday. Look for the result on the Past Events page since the meet will already be completed at that time. Here is the link to the events page: https://www.
Concessions - Although many of you will bring your own snacks (be thoughtful of nutrition and energy for your swimmers), we will have our awesome concession stand open at 7:45am. Breakfast burritos, coffee, snacks and grilled burgers & hot dogs. We accept cash and Venmo. Eat as much as you like, it's a great fundraiser for the team!
Sunscreen- Hint...Sunscreen and Sharpie (you will need Sharpies to write event information on your child's arm). It is easier to sunscreen first, then Sharpie. If you do it in the reverse, the Sharpie smears. Reference the New Family Guide in the Documents section of the website for how to write your child's events on their arm.
Parking- PLEASE READ!!! We are allowed to park in ALL of the Hub parking lot. Please do not park anywhere that cones that have been set up. We are allowed to park along Lone Tree Pkwy. Be considerate if you park in the neighborhoods and double check you are not in a No Parking zone.
Spectators- No spectators are allowed in heating or behind the blocks. Spectators and swimmers are not allowed in the recreation pool at any time during the meet.
Please contact me with questions!
Remember you can NOT get a tent space before 6:45pm on Friday.
See you all on Saturday and bring your patience to this very full meet!
GO WAHOOS!!!
Tina
