    City Meet:

    This year on July 7 & 8, City Meet is the swim meet to eclipse all other swim meets! It is so much fun and a time of Shark Team spirit. We are gearing up for a Christmas in July party this year.  A few action items:

    • Go to SwimTopia and RSVP your swimmer. 
      • 10 and under swimmers are in the morning.  11 and up are in the afternoon.  All finals are in the evening.  Relay swimmers will be announced the day of - check Remind for the names. (It will only be sent via Remind app, so please join if you have not already @e7eh68)
      • 6 & under are Saturday events only.
      • Friday's schedule includes the longer events and breaststroke.
      • It is critical that your swimmer be available for finals should they make the times during prelims.  This is where we earn our team points and rankings for the final season score.
      • As you RSVP, in the "notes" section, please let Coach Katie know if there are any events your athlete is NOT interested in swimming.
    • Please help us out by fulfilling our wish list of goodies for our swimmers. We will not have official City Meet shirts this year; raid the closet and see what you can find to show your "Christmas in July" spirit!
    • Due to CASL raising the fees,it is $45 in order to participate in the meet.  Please pay your $45 fee per swimmer via Square. If this causes a huge difficulty for your family, please let us know.  Conversely, if you are able to sponsor another swimmer, please let us know.  We really do not want this to cause families to not attend the meet.
    • Every participating family must sign up for one volunteer spot.  Log into SwimTopia to pick one of the many shifts available.  This is in addition to the season volunteer requirements.

    Thanks to all of our parents and swimmers for an awesome season.  Let's swim hard this week and, as always, have fun!
