Swimmers need to be there by 5:15 per Coach Arden!!!

This is from the Cleveland Team Rep:

I hope all is well!  I am the acting Pool Rep for the Cleveland Aqua Tigers.  We are extremely excited to be hosting you and your swimmers tomorrow evening.  Below is a little information you and your team might find useful:

• Warm-ups will begin at 5:00 PM with the meet beginning at 6:00 PM
• If your coaches prefer to have specific lanes, please let us know, but generally, our visitors prefer lanes 5, 6, 7, & 8 - as they are on the side that our visiting parents will set up their chairs and tents
• The pools concession stand is located just as you come in the front gate of the Pool deck.  They will be open and will serve a variety of items.  However, coolers and outside food may be brought in.
• Seating for our visiting teams is located to the right of the pool inside the gate.  It is a grass area with sidewalk leading up to the pool.  The sun shines on us all until around 7:30 PM when the sun finally moves behind the trees
• Bathrooms and lockers are located to your left as you walk in the front gate of the pool area
• Our scoring table will be set up to the left of the pool and covered by CAT provided tents.  There will be enough seating for 2-3 of your volunteers, if needed.
• If your team would like recommendations for restaurants for post-meet dinner, please let me know and I would be happy to make some recommendations.
• Directions are pretty straight forward:  

• • Take I-75S to the Paul Huff Parkway Exit (Exit 27); 
  • Turn right on to Paul Huff Parkway; 
  • Take Paul Huff Parkway approximately 2 miles to the intersection of Keith Street (point of reference - Walmart and Olive Garden will be on your right at this intersection); 
  • Take Keith Street for about .5 miles and Kenneth Tinsley Recreational Park will be on your right;
  • The pool is located toward the back of the park and up the hill (we will have signs to assist your families)

• Parking is limited at the top of the hill; therefore many of our families will need to park at the bottom of the hill and walk up.  It is a little bit of a hike, so anyone with troubles walking, should pull to the top of the hill and be dropped off

We found that merging our rosters in the swim-team.us website early in the day, around 2:00 PM, makes our pre-meet activities on the pool deck much less hectic.  Plus, our location has a fairly poor internet connection, and we would hate to not be able to merge at all.  If you guys would be open to this, please contact me to arrange a time we can coordinate the merge over the phone.  I will be available anytime tomorrow.

 

Again, we are excited about you guys coming to join us in Cleveland, and if there is anything further I can do to make your team's experience awesome, please let me know!
