Hi Wahoo Families!

Below is a message from the RCC Riptides:

"The swim meet will start at 6:30pm. Our team will warm up between 5:45 and 6pm, and your swimmers will warm up from 6 to 6:15pm. 

Our club is located at 12950 Patterson Ave, Henrico, VA 23238. The pool is down the drive to the left. When you enter the pool area, please use the space to the left of the pool with the surrounding tables and chairs and open space under the sail umbrellas for your team and parents to gather. 

You may want to encourage parents to bring extra chairs. Our kitchen will be open, and food and drinks will be available for purchase. We do not serve alcohol during swim meets. 

In terms of volunteers, please plan to provide 16 timers, 4 S&T judges and 2 verifiers to allow for first and second shifts."

SWIMMERS' EVENTS:

Attached are the meet entries for tomorrow. As always, please disregard Event #1 200 IM.

Event seeding is based on a myriad of factors that we must consider.  Requests for specific events are not able to be fulfilled. Over the course of the season, swimmers will have opportunities for new challenges and growth in their races!

NOTE: Before coming to the meet please have your Swimmer's events written on their hand.

SWIMMERS:

-Get good rest the night before.

-Hydrate really well the day of.

-What to Bring: towel(s), goggles, swim cap, healthy snacks, team suit, chairs, sharpies, sunscreen, card games and toys (baby pool will be closed), $ for food, WATER!

PARENTS:

-You are an important part of the team! Your support matters!

-Praising your Swimmer for their hard work not only motivates your Swimmer but the Swimmers and their families nearby.

-Just as it is during Practice please refrain from sideline coaching during Meets, this can be confusing to the swimmers and inhibits the coaches from doing their jobs.

-The coaches have the best interest of your Swimmers in mind and with that being said they will need to be fully available to focus on the Swimmers during Meets and Practices. Please contact the Coaches via email to set up a later time to discuss something.Have a happy and safe weekend!

Let's have some fun and kick some bu-bbles!!!

Go Wahoos!

Coaches Abbey, Erica, and Molly
