The key to a successful swim program is the parent volunteer. Without them, the program does not exist. It takes over a hundred volunteers to host a home swim meet. Each family is expected to volunteer for four (4) shifts during the summer. If your child swims in prelims or finals, you will be asked to volunteer for an additional shift. It is very important that you meet your volunteer obligations. If you cannot make a shift, it is your responsibility to notify the coordinator and find a replacement.
Your swim team registration will not be accepted without your volunteer signup.
$150 deposit is required, to be returned when volunteer requirements have been met.
You must submit a self-addressed, stamped envelope to get your check back.
Otherwise, it will be shredded if you complete your volunteer assignments.

We ask you to please make every effort to sign-up for volunteer shifts by April 4th. Please be pro-active in signing up and double-checking regularly for your assignments. The assignment sheets will be posted at the east end of the pool during the season.
Because we are a big team, we would like all volunteers and parents to wear a nametag, which we will provide, during home meets. We want to build a team.
