Things WAHOOS need to know:

- 10 and younger swimmers need to have name and age written on their left shoulder (so that VOLUNTEERS can read it).

- All swimmers should have event numbers written on their arm or leg (so that SWIMMER can read it).

- Bring sunscreen, water/drinks, snacks, towel/cap/goggles/suit, chairs or blankets to sit on between events. You can bring cards or things to do that are ok to get wet. Please leave home any active toys like water guns, balls, frisbees, etc.

- We plan to have 6 large tents set up for all our Wahoos to sit under. (I'll send directions around 8 pm after they're set up so that you know exactly where to sit) Swimmers must stay in this area between events! Some parents like to set up chairs inside the fence/by the pool and that's fine for parents, and that's fine for parents. We really need your swimmers hanging out in the shade and under our tents between events -- we need to be able to easily find them. Feel free to bring an additional tent which you can set up close if there is room - some people like a little extra space.  NO TENTS allowed on the pool deck inside the fence.

- As always, 10 and younger swimmers should come to the bull pen when called. We will have numbers hanging by our Wahoo bull pen for who should be in the bull pen (new this meet!) + we have the bull horn to call out. Swimmers should come with no shoes, no parents, and no lollipops, and they should have goggles with them! Coaches, volunteers, and bull pen workers will get your swimmer to their races and to the correct lanes, and we will have a coach waiting with each swimmer. NO PARENTS are allowed in the bull pen area or the starting area (unless you're volunteering)!

- For 11 and older swimmers, I recommend that swimmers head to their lane about 1 event before each race - there are lots of heats for each race. We will have a coach stationed in the starting area to help with any questions regarding heat/lane/order/technique/etc. ONLY BE IN THE STARTING AREA IF YOU'RE ABOUT TO RACE because it is crowded enough without your friends or parents standing around you!

-We are counting on your swimmer to be at the meet if you signed them up. If an emergency happens and you cannot make it to the meet, please TEXT Coach Susan ASAP at 770-265-2925 (even if it's during the night). The earlier we know, the less stressful it is to make any changes on relays.

Things KEDRON wants you to know:

Parking is available for cars at Kedron, the skating rink, and at Kedron Elementary. DO NOT park in the fire lanes - they will tow!

Feel free to drive through and drop off all your gear and swimmers, as it can be a long walk from parking to where we sit. (directions of where Wahoo area is will come this evening, once tents are set up)

Swimmers will not be able to use the small pool and will need to stay away from the edges of the large pool when not swimming.

Please keep all doorways and entrances clear - no stopping/standing/sitting there.

Only coaches, swimmers (in that event), and volunteers are allowed in the starting/finishing area for any session.

They will run concessions, but I don't know what they're serving.  CASH ONLY!!!!

Parents can download the TIME DROPS LIVE! app to follow along with the meet in real time. These times are not official. The pin will be posted the day of the meet. 

Go Wahoos!

Coach Susan
