CHAMPS (10 & Under) - Welch Parent Volunteers (8 needed)


Welch Sharks Parents, we are 2 days from the start of CHAMPS-littles (age 10 & under) at Penns Valley (Millheim – Soldiers & Sailors Memorial Park).  We need to fill 8 more of our required Welch Parent Meet Volunteer spots.  Nice work, but we still have “miles to go before I sleep or is it 23 miles until we swim at CHAMPS (10 & under)?” ...it's both -- see Google Maps ;-)

Unlike a regular season meet which uses two (2) timers and records the average of the two (2) watch times per lane, a CHAMPS meet uses three (3) timers with the recorded time being the watch time that is between the upper and lower watch times.  Let’s fill these Welch Parent positions and root on our younger Sharks to have a great CHAMPS meet.

Let’s try and fill these Welch Parent Meet Volunteer positions before WED (7/29) and then be able to focus our undivided attention to root on our Welch Shark Swimmers.

From Welch Pool, State College – Continue on S. Atherton St.(Rt. 322-business) towards and into Boalsburg.  Make a LEFT onto Rt.45 EAST (Earleystown Rd.) at the traffic light nearest Kelly’s Steak House and Boalsburg Motor Cars.  Continue 18.7 miles on Rt. 45 in to the town of Millheim.  The Milllheim Pool at the Soldier's and Sailor's Memorial Park is located just off Park Road in Millheim, PA.  From the intersection of Routes 45 and 445 (aka North Street) in downtown Millheim (zip 16854) head EAST on Route 45 until you cross the bridge. Park Road is the first LEFT after the bridge. Follow Park Road until you see the park entrance on your left.

GO WELCH SHARKS!
