**Swim Caps** Why wear them?

Volunteer Info: Swim meets are one of the most fun parts of swim team. It takes A LOT of volunteers to make each meet happen so just like most summer swim teams, Woodmont relies on parent volunteers. Having enough volunteers means the meets start on time, run on time and run smoothly. Not to mention your swimmer will be cheering you on, too!
We are thankful to each one of you for your time and for sharing your swimmers with us this season!
