My First Swim Meet

I hope all our new swimmers are excited for their first meet this weekend!  You can see which races your child is swimming by going to the Events page on our website, and looking at the attached file for individual events. 

Only the first 3 events will happen Friday evening; the 200, 800 and 1500 freestyle. If your child is not entered in those events, and very few of the Class 1.5’s are, you don’t need to attend — but you could come to watch for a bit. Warmups are 4:30-5:30, and the races will begin at 5:30pm and last until about 8:00pm. 

Saturday morning we need everyone on deck by 10:45 am. Warmups are 11-12, and the races, starting with Event 4, will run from noon til 5pm or so. Relays are last, and we do need all swimmers to stick around for the relays as we often have changes during the day - please speak to Cheryl or Chris before leaving the pool to make certain your swimmer really is finished for the day.

Sunday is an earlier start, on deck at 7:45am and finishing up about 1:00pm. Medals will be presented in the pool lobby roughly half an hour after the last relay race finishes. Ribbons will be handed out at practice later in the week.

Go Rapids!
