Vortex,

Here is a timeline for today's meet:

4:30: All swimmers to the pool for warmups
5:00: Meet begins

Today's meet is intersquad. The main objective is to get swimmers' times for each swim so our heats are appropriate going forward. 

• All swimmers need to be at the pool and ready to warm up at 4:30. Please be on time and check in with the coach at the entrance to the pool for attendance when you arrive. The meet should last until around 6:30. We start with the 11 and Up Individual Medley events and then move on to the 6 and Unders. We do all the 6 and Under events and then start the Medley Relay. Please be sure you stay until your child's last event. If your child is in a Free Relay at the end of the meet and leaves, then 3 other swimmers don't have a team.

• Walk, carpool, ride your bike!! The parking lot will be jam packed. If you must drive, park on only one side of the street -- signs will be posted. Emergency vehicles can not get through if we park on both sides -- you will be asked to move your car!!

• Bring chairs, shade, a sharpie, sunscreen and your own printed lineup from the website. All of these things will be in short supply, and the team does not provide printed paperwork.

• Concessions! Bring cash as we have a full concession stand with drinks, hot dogs, Chick Fil A sandwiches and all kinds of snacks. You are allowed to bring a cooler to the meet (no alcohol please) but I encourage you to visit the concession stand. This is our only fundraiser, and it keeps our registration costs so low.

• If you have a team suit, wear it! If you don't have a team suit, please wear a one piece suit that doesn't need to be tied or won't fall down when diving/jumping in. Bring goggles!!

• In the event of weather issues, please check your inbox for updates. We will make every effort to run even a portion of the meet.

The HEAT SHEET and TEAM ENTRY will be sent out around 3pm.  

This is a lot of information. Please don't hesitate with any questions. Thank you for your cooperation and support.
