Mock Meet Reminder

Hey Welch Sharks,

Just a reminder that your team will be holding a Team Mock Meet Saturday (6/14) morning from 8:00 AM to 10:00 AM.  As posted a couple of days ago, this is a great opportunity for swimmers and parents to experience a swim meet without the pressure of a league meet.  The events of the practice meet will consist of two (2) individual events (freestyle and backstroke) and one (1) freestyle relay.

PARENTS - We still need more parent volunteers!
As of FRI afternoon we still need:
  • Timers - 13
  • Runners - 2
  • Scorers/Averagers - 2
Please sign-up at our mock meet's volunteer sign-up genius page:

Other Notes:

DEADLINES:
  • Swimsuits - Team Swimsuit Orders are due tomorrow (SAT, 6/14).  Suit try-ons for sizing orders will be held prior to the meet.  All sample suit try-ons MUST be BEFORE entering the water.

  • Apparel - Team Apparel Orders are due tomorrow (SAT, 6/14).  We will have a limited number of team apparel items available for sale (cash & carry) at tomorrow's mock meet.  If your desired item is not available at the cash & carry table, you must submit an apparel order with payment to Marcie Rockey at the Team Apparel table.  An apparel order form is available to download and print at this link:
