🛟We still need parent volunteers to fill open jobs! (Remember the requirement to volunteer for at least 3 swim meets. If there are still open shifts at the start of warm-ups you will be randomly assigned.) 

📋The heat sheets for the championship meet are attached. Be sure to mark your swimmer's arm or thigh with their Events/Heats/Lanes and write their name on their backs with a sharpie before the meet (using the attached Events by Swimmer report is easiest for this).

🎤SRAC is requesting that everyone enters through the main doors (not the TigerShark doors), and proceeds to set up in the gym. Each team will have their own section.

🏊Hampton Ridge warm-ups will be in lanes 4, 5 & 6 from 8:30-8:55am for the morning session (10 & Under) and from 12:30-12:55pm for the afternoon session (11 & Older).

Things to know:

• Swimmers should remain in the gym as much as possible between races to keep the other areas clear.
• There will be signs marking the flow of swimmer and spectator traffic.
• The gym is the primary collection point for swimmers preparing to line up.
• Championship shirts will be available at a table in the gym, if you forgot to preorder there will be a limited number of extra shirts available for purchase.
• No chairs will be allowed on the pool deck in front of the shallow end windows or in front of the bleachers. Bleacher seating is recommended. Chairs can be used in the gym.

This is our most competitive meet of the season, so please come well rested and ready to do your best. 🦦Go Otters!
