During The Meet
Please ensure your swimmers arrive to the clerk of course on time to be escorted to their events. Events are identified by an event number, description, heat number, and lane assignment (many swimmers write this on their arms). Be quiet for the start of each event and then CHEER for swimmers! Stay for the entire meet to encourage your swimmer to cheer for their teammates and get caught up in the excitement of the relay events at the end of the meet.
