Good Morning Racers! 

We have our second HOME meet this Thursday hosting Connemara. Our meet theme is GLOW and Nancy Riggle will be selling glow wear at the meet. Please feel free to wear your own fun glow wear as well!

Also, our PARENT RELAY will be this Thursday night!! We can have up to 8 parent participants for 2 teams. If you are burning to participate, please text Carra Greer at 770-530-4977 and let her know so that she can ensure we have enough people to create our teams. This will be a 50 Free relay diving in from the blocks and will take place at the shift change after event 36. 

We have 60% chance of rain and storms for Thursday night so please prepare for weather delays. Remember that we will be using the remind text system for notifications. Text @racers2019 to 81010 to join if you have not already done so. If we have a delay, DO NOT LEAVE! We will make every effort to get the meet in so that we do not have to make up the meet on MONDAY! Make up meets are impossibly difficult to pull off. We won't usually "call" the meet until 9:00 or 9:30 in an attempt to get it in. If we get a late start, we will generally scratch the relays. Also, if you are scheduled to work a shift on Thursday, you will be responsible for the rescheduled meet shift on Monday as well - if we need to reschedule. 

Set up team & Parking team begins at 4:00 

Racers Warm Up begins at 5:00 

Meet begins at 6:00 

With regards to the bullpen, please know that it is VITAL for your children to stay in the bullpen when they are not swimming. They can cheer on their friends from the front railing. If you'd like to feed your child some dinner in between swims, please go to the bullpen and "check them out" from the adults in charge. Bring them back ASAP. It may seem to some that our bullpen volunteers are too stern but imagine how difficult it is to control 110 kids under the age of 14!! We ask a lot of these particular volunteers and they have arguably the most difficult job at the meet so please be mindful and if you have an issue, please come let me know privately. 

Remember to print your heat sheets when I email them out tomorrow. If you are working a bullpen or staging shift, you may want to print a copy to use in your shift work. 

We will have team and individual photos this Friday morning at 9:00am. 

PLEASE DON'T FORGET TO NOTIFY ME or COACH DANNY IF YOU WILL NOT BE ATTENDING THE MEET THIS THURSDAY!!!!!! This is particularly important for the relays! 

Goooooo Racers - Let's get a win this week!
