Expectations of Parents
The success of the swim team depends on the combined efforts of the swimmers parents and guardians, in addition to the efforts of the swimmers themselves. Swim meets and other swim team activities are organized and run by parent/guardian volunteers. Parents are responsible for volunteering in 3 swim team events. Swim Team events include Swim Meets and Swim-a-thon.
Some volunteer positions require experience and training. Others just require a brief orientation or short instructional meeting before the meet begins. Volunteers should arrive early and check in during warm-ups. You will receive instructions or be advised to listen for announcements of meetings for various volunteer groups just before the meet begins. Inform the SWIM TEAM BOARD, in advance, if you CANNOT make your volunteer commitment for a specific meet and please make every effort to arrange your own substitute!
