Good morning parents!

This email is just the first of many emails that you will be getting related to our Champs meet scheduled for Saturday, July 14th at Cecil Field Aquatic Center. For new families, this meet is when all of the SJSSL teams swim against each other. It's a huge event and a lot of fun to see how all the swimmers have progressed through the season!

• RSVP: As long as your swimmer has participated in at least 3 meets this season, you can go ahead and register them to participate in Champs. If your swimmer was seeded to swim in the Mock Meet, that one will count as one of their meets, even though it was rained out. If your swimmer has not yet competed in three meets, you will have to wait until that has occurred before you RSVP for them.
• Volunteers: As you can imagine, a meet of this magnitude requires a tremendous number of volunteers. Each team is required to supply volunteers for the various jobs. If your swimmer(s) are participating in Champs, we need you to volunteer! Please take a minute and review the jobs available and sign up for something. If you have already signed up, note that the shifts may have changed a little, and they may change again once the meet is seeded. The shift times you see now are just approximates.
• T-Shirts: Each year the league sells t-shirts with a unique Champs design. These are available for sale online at this web site. All orders must be placed online by Wednesday, June 27th!!! No exceptions.
• Splash Out for Hunger: The SJSSL collects food to donate to Christ's Cupboard food pantry. Please see the list of items they are collecting attached to this e-mail. You can drop off your donations to Michelle Fell's house, 168 Tollerton Ave. She will have a bin at her front door for donation. All donations must be dropped of by Tuesday, July 10th!

Go Dolphins!
