If you are running late, please email and let us know so your swimmer is not in jeopardy of being scratched
Parents here are some suggestions to make the day easier:
- Snacks, lots of snacks;
- Bring sitting/relaxing activities and games for your swimmer (UNO, coloring books, bracelet making kits, etc.), please no balls or running around;
- All swimmers need to stay in the designated team area, please ask a coach before leaving the area so your swimmer does not miss their race. Swimmers can utilize the playground after they are done swimming;
- Keep track of your swimmer's goggles because they always seem to go missing at the worst time; and
- Some useful things to pack: extra towels, sunscreen, camping chairs, and cash for the concession stand
We are looking forward to a great weekend of fast swims and lots of cheering! Don't forget your tie dye or team T-shirt! Go Fuller!!!!
