Hi Stallion families,

Our first meet is this Saturday at HOME against the Castle Hill Eels.

Time & Location:

Arrive: 7:00 a.m.
Warm up: 7:20 a.m.
Meet starts promptly at 8:30 a.m.

What to bring:

• Team or black bathing suit, team swim cap, goggles
• Chairs, shade, snacks, water
• Whatever else you need to be comfortable and keep your kids occupied when they're not swimming/getting ready.
• Sharpie - please write your swimmer's name on their right upper arm. This will help our Ready Bench volunteers identify everyone. Mark your swimmer’s event/ heat/ lane on their forearm or upper thigh with a Sharpie so your swimmer(s) can keep track of their events and the Ready Bench Parents can easily locate where your swimmer needs to be. You will find this information on the Heat Sheet we will send later on Friday. See the bottom of this email for a sample Sharpie grid.

Spectator Set up

Stallion families may set up under and in front of the pavilion. The Ready Benches will be on the side of the pool with the long brown benches.  Our opponent will sit in the grass behind the diving blocks.

Concessions

We will have a concession stand with breakfast tacos, doughnuts, cold brew, pickles, and fruit plus chips & candy. We are also selling t-shirts ($20 for the 2024 shirt, $5 for prior year shirts) and cooling towels ($20)! Cash only!

Volunteers

• Please check it with Robin Klussman when you arrive so she can account for everyone and fill in any remaining spots. This also lets Coach know that everyone is here!
• We will be at the pool at 6:00 a.m. to set up. Feel free to come early or send a grown up member of your family to lend a hand.
• The opposing team is very small so we may need some extra timers. Please be flexible if we ask for more people to assist at the meet.  We are also short stroke & turn judges for the second half of the meet.  Remember, to be a judge you only have to watch these short videos to get up to speed.

Other items of note

• If you are no longer able to attend the meet, even on Saturday morning, please message us on Remind so Coach can make last minute adjustments. This is especially important if your swimmer is in a relay.
• Please respond in Swimtopia yes or no to the next two meets. 
• Thank you to the parents we will be representing the Stallions during the parents relay.  Please show them your support!
• Download the Swimtopia App to keep up with the meet in "real time".

Go Red! Go Black! Go Stallions! Attack!
