Donations

Each family is required to contribute one 12 pack of EITHER Coke, Diet Coke or Sprite AND one 8 pack of Gatorade (any flavor). * Please note that we are VERY size and brand specific. It causes much less aggravation and confusion at the concession stand if all beverages are the same size and brand.

Volunteering

All parents are required to work 4 half meets. If you are not fulfilling your obligation to the team, your child will not swim in the meets. Rita Scarpantonio is our volunteer coordinator. You can reach Rita at 770-928-4731.

If you sign up for a job, please show up. DO NOT make us hunt you down. If you cannot fulfill your obligation, YOU must find someone to fill in for you. Rita will be glad to help you, but it is the parent’s responsibility to find a replacement.

When working a volunteer position, please do not leave your post completely unattended while you watch your child swim. Coordinate with other parents so that you all do not leave at the same time.

NO children will be allowed in the concession stand at any time, for any reason. This is a safety issue.

Clean – up
There is no clean up committee! Everyone is responsible for cleaning up. If your child is in any of the last 5 relays, you must stay and help clean up. It goes quickly if everyone pitches in.

Lineups
There will be no additions to the roster after 12:00 noon. Please check Sunday night or Monday morning to be sure your child is in the lineup. If your child will miss the meet, please let us know ASAP. If your child is sick, please scratch them from the meet before 11:00 a.m. on Monday. REMEMBER, when your child misses a relay, it affects 3 other swimmers. Therefore, we must know ahead of time. Do not tell someone you will be gone, PLEASE write it on the sign out board. The person you tell, coordinator or coach, will not remember. Put it in WRITING, preferably on the board.
