Away Meet at Chadds Walk:

Our theme for this week is glow/neon! Wear all the bright colors for this meet.

Pool Description:

The away meet is located at Chadds Walk. The pool is a 4-lane pool with diving blocks on the deep end. They have ordered the electronic timing system so we may be using it next week, but I will be bringing our stop watches as a back up option.

Pool Address:

The North Forest pool is located at: 2146 Spindrift Court Marietta, GA.

DO NOT PUT CHADDS WALK POOL IN GOOGLE MAPS! This will bring you to a different pool!

Parking:

Please park on the right side of the street so that traffic can get through. Please do not park in people's yards or block driveways.

Seating:

Please bring your own folding chairs since space is limited. Since the area is small, we will be creating an area for the 5&6 and 7&8 bullpens. I will be using outdoor blankets if anyone has an extra one they wouldn’t mind us using for these bullpens, please bring them to the meet!

Other Items Needed:

*Sharpie

*Bug Spray (in the past we have had a lot of mosquitoes/bugs) at this meet

Check In:

Athletes can begin checking in at 5:00 pm. Volunteers and athletes MUST BE CHECKED IN BY 5:15. If you are a volunteer in a later shift, text me at (304) 593-2138 if you plan to arrive later.

Warm-ups:

We will warm-up at 5:30 pm. The meet will begin at 6:00. If you miss the warm-up time you will not be able to warm-up.

Concessions:

Chadds Walk’s concessions will be serving Chick fil A sandwiches, pizza, nachos with salsa and jalapenos, strawberries and cream, fresh fruit, candy, chips, desserts, and drinks. They accept cash and Venmo! No bills larger than $20, please!

Volunteers:

We still have several open jobs for volunteers for this meet. Remember, you must volunteer at least 2 times per swimmer for the season. Our swim team is 100% run by volunteers. We have the following openings available:

*2 People for Bullpen 7 & 8 – 1^st shift

*2 People for Bullpen 7 & 8 – 2^nd Shift

*1 Person for Lane Manager – 1^st Shift

*1 People for Timer – 1^st shift

If you have a child in the 7&8 age group, we would love your help with the bullpen. Even if you have met your volunteer requirements we still need help this season.

Swim Atlanta Swim Team Clinic:

Swim Atlanta, a year-round swim team, will be at the pool on Thursday, June 11^th from 8:30 – 10:30 am.

This clinic is open to our 7 and up swimmers.

The Junior Sharks will swim at their normal time of 8:15 am. I will update you early next week on when the 5&6 year olds will swim.

If you have any questions or concerns, please let me know.

Thanks,
