Hold the Dates! January 24 - 26
Terrace Swim Meet in January!!
Mark it in your calendars - Jan 24,25,26 is our first of 2 swim meets of the year (the second meet is in early June).
This will be a heats and finals swim meet so it's a bit different than the meets you may have been at before. This means we have 5 sessions instead of just 2 or 3 and we'll need volunteers for each session: Friday evening, Saturday morning, Saturday afternoon, Sunday morning and Sunday afternoon.
On Saturday and Sunday, we run the heats in the morning then the same races again in the afternoon. The top 6 swimmers from each of those events in the morning (and 2 alternates as back up) swim the same race again in the afternoon.
We'll send an email the week before the swim meet with more explanations on what to expect during this meet and how to know if your swimmer will be swimming in the finals.
Our volunteers are CRITICAL for each session.
We will be posting up a sign up sheet in the first week or so in January via Facebook, email and a hard copy at the pool for people to sign up for at least one session (but feel free to sign up to all of them!!)
We also have a mini meet set for January 11th where we'll need volunteers as well - this is more like a team building event with not so serious races and a great way for our newer volunteers to become familiar with our set up for an actual meet.
Don't hesitate to reach out to myself with any questions or concerns around the swim meet or volunteering at this meet.
