GCC Meet TOMORROW

June 2nd

GCC Meet Tomorrow at 4

We are so excited for our first meet tomorrow! Please read over this email so you know what to expect.

We are still in need of someone to sing the National Anthem. Please let me know ASAP if you or your swimmer are willing to do this at the beginning of the meet.

Drop Off:

Swimmer drop off is in the upper lot. Once the swimmer has been dropped off, you may park anywhere in the neighborhood where there is not a sign saying “no parking” or across the street at Covenant Church. There will be a sherriff’s deputy available at some times to assist with crossing Old Spartanburg Rd.

Warm Ups:

10 and under- 2:45-3

11 and up- 3-3:15

Concessions:

Concessions will be sold for cash and cards. We will also have a snow cone truck there.

Seating:

There will be no chairs allowed on deck this year. Families can set up tents and chairs in the parking lot. We have designated areas for our team and the away team. Please look over the attached parking lot diagram to know where you can set up. Then you can come on deck to watch your swimmer(s). This will allow for us to have more room on deck and enjoy watching the races.

Heat Sheets:

I have attached the heat sheet. We will NOT be selling them tomorrow. Feel free to print it or use the Swimtopia App. Approximate times are on the heat sheet, but people shouldn't rely on those - they are a best guess. Some heats have been combined as noted on the heat sheet, but changes will inevitably happen tomorrow so expect some changes.

Bad Weather Plan:

Very heavy rain—In case of heavy rain, swimmers will be asked to leave their tent area. They may come in the clubhouse, but space is limited. They may also go to their cars with parents.
Severe weather—In the event of severe weather, all spectators and swimmers should return to their cars. We will be monitoring with the National Weather Service. It is at the lifeguards and Meet Referee discretion whether to stop the meet or not. The Meet Referee, a lifeguard, Meet Director, and SAIL Reps from each team will decide when the meet shall resume.

Alcohol:
