Parent Volunteer Jobs: Each family is required to sign up for swim meet jobs over the course of the season. Swim meets require parent participation in jobs like timing, stroke/turn judging, place judging, swimmer seeding, etc. These are fancy names for things like starting and stopping a stop watch, noticing who is doing freestyle instead of back stroke, recording who finishes first, and assisting children who are waiting for their event to begin. These jobs are not difficult and truly help our team.
Two parent meetings will be held giving each family an opportunity to attend the meeting that is the most convenient for them and allow each family to sign up for the jobs that best fit your interests and abilities. For parents who are new to swimming, a parent coordinator will be there to assist you with any questions you may have.
Mandatory Parent Meetings will be held...
