• The coaches will be checking in swimmers when you arrive. This is important! Please stop at their table when you walk in. We also finally have our team caps. When you check in, your swimmer(s) will receive their caps.
• We will be taking our team picture at the meet. Please arrive at 4:30PM and have your swimmers wear this year's team t-shirt for the picture.

Parking: Westwood parking can be limited. Please remember to NOT park on the street in front of the Club, and be courteous not to block our neighbors' driveways. Twin City Health, our area's Holistic Chiropractic Care center, is generously offering their parking lot for our guests to use during meets.

General Information:

We will be using Clerk of Course again for our 10 and unders. Please bring or send your child to CoC at least 5 events before their own! Look for us set up by the deep end with the blue tent and chairs.

• Spectators are welcome to bring deck chairs as we may not have enough for everyone.
• We will plan to use dive overs for the 11 and over events to save time. We have overhead deck lighting and pool lights in case it gets dark on us.
• No parents behind the start area unless you are a volunteer. No swimmers behind the start area unless you are lined up for your event. We have limited space and it gets chaotic!
• The baby pool will be closed! You are welcome to use the tables and chairs in that area, but no one in the water.

Food, Drinks, and Entertainment:

• We will sell food items out of the grill; limited menu! We have attached the menu below.
• Sunset Slush is on the scene from 5pm-8pm. If you have a Sunset Slush Koozie bring it! Sunset Slush is cash or Venmo
• Music from our DJ.
• We are also doing a 50/50 raffle. $1/ticket, $2/3 tickets, $5/7 tickets, or $20 for an arm's length. We will be taking Venmo and cash. For those new to the team, at every home meet, we do a 50/50 raffle (50% goes to the winner, 50% goes to the Waves). Please consider participating. This helps fund the fun things we do for our swimmers (like donuts on Fun Friday and popsicles at the end of home meets).
• Hosting a home meet is a lot of work! Thank you to all of our hard working parent volunteers who have signed up to help! NEW THIS YEAR: After you complete your shift, check in with Jessica or Pam to receive a beverage voucher (good for one free drink at the Grill)!
• We are still in need of more volunteers! (Lane parents, and hospitality) New parents to swim team, please consider volunteering! It is essential for us to all help out, we need more volunteers at home meets vs. away meets.
• We're excited to have our first adult relay at the end of the meet! After the "official" meet concludes, we'll take a quick 5 minute break to assemble. Don't forget your bathing suits, caps and goggles! After the relay, we'll have a pool party for the entire team, so make sure to stick around for all the fun happenings at the end of the meet! We also have icee pops for all the swimmers. :).
• We will send out heat sheets and athlete sheets once we get them tomorrow.
  Let us know if you have any other questions! Let’s go Waves!!
  Thank you,
  Pam and Jessica
