Hi Stallion families,

Our second home meet is this Saturday against the Hunters Creek Hurricanes.

Please note we are starting earlier this week than last week. Hunters Creek has approximately 80 swimmers so this meet will be longer than last week’s meet.

Time:

Arrive: 6:30 a.m.
Warm up: 6:50 a.m.
Meet starts promptly at 8:00 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 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 Las Palapas breakfast tacos, doughnuts, Mildfire 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 in 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 5:30 a.m. to set up. Feel free to come early or send a grown up member of your family to lend a hand.
• Thank you to the parents who will be representing the Stallions during the parents relay. Please show them your support! And if you are willing to be a parent relay alternate, please bring a suit. We usually end up with needing one sub.

Other items of note:

• If you are no longer able to attend the meet, including 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.
• Download the Swimtopia App to keep up with the meet in "real time".

Go Red! Go Black! Go Stallions! Attack!
