Hi Parents,

Our last home meet of the season is just around the corner and we are looking forward to hosting the Murabella Fighting Turtles! 

Attached to this email you will find three documents:

• Heat Sheet - Print a copy of this to bring with you to the meet so you can follow along with the meet. There may be changes before Saturday, but unless it impacts your swimmer, this version will work for you. If your swimmer is impacted by an event/heat change, you will hear from Meredith or Andrew Connell or your coach.
• Entry List - Please review the entries for your swimmer(s) ASAP and reply to this email if there are any concerns, questions, or issues with them! Do not wait until Saturday morning!!!
• Parking zones & deck map - The fewer cars we can have at the pool the better. Remember if you have to park on the street, do not block driveways, crosswalks, roadways or fire hydrants. Please don't park on both sides of the street. Please abide by all parking signs and parking marshalls. 

The timeline for the morning is:

Swimmer and Volunteer Check-in**: 6:15 to 6:30 am

Durbin Crossing Warm-Ups: 6:45 to 7:15 am

Fighting Turtles Warm-Ups: 7:15 to 7:45 am

Meet Starts: 8:00 am

**IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT YOUR SWIMMERS CHECK IN BY 6:30 AM! IF YOUR SWIMMER DOES NOT CHECK IN, THEY ARE AT RISK OF BEING SCRATCHED FROM THE MEET.**

**Even if you are a second-half volunteer, we need to you check in first thing in the morning so we can confirm we have all of the volunteers we need to work the meet. If you are interested in working a different session than what you have signed up for, just let Steve Moore know when you check in on Saturday morning.**

We will again have three food trucks providing food and beverages for the meet: Back to the Grind Coffee Truck, JoySchtick, and Kona Ice. We will have a limited concession stand offering water, Gatorade, candy and donuts. Should your swimmer and family need other options for food, please bring your own! It is going to be another hot day, so bring plenty of fluids to keep your family hydrated!

Friday Night Meet Set Up Crew: If you are signed up to assist with set up on Friday night, please plan to meet at the pool at 9:00 pm tomorrow night. If you are available earlier and can assist in loading everything at the storage unit, please meet us at 8:30 at the Atlantic Self Storage on Race Track Rd across from Durbin Creek Elementary before heading to the pool to unload. Many hands make light work and with everyone there on time, we should be able to knock it out quickly. Should we be able to meet earlier than that, you will get a message to come earlier. We have to wait until the majority of the pool deck is cleared off before we begin working.

Remember to wear your team shirts, team suits and swim caps on Saturday morning to show your Dolphin spirit!

GO DOLPHINS!
