- No kickboard or assisted swim events will be held at this away meet.
- The order of events will be freestyle, back stroke, breast, butterfly and then IM. Young Gators, please do not try to swim an IM until you are confident that you have mastered all 4 strokes. Parents check with coaches if you need verification for you swimmers.
- Last check we still needed several volunteers for ALL of our jobs. Arlington Forest is an 8 lane pool so we need extra timers and an additional stroke and turn. The Tigers have requested that we send 12 timers for each half, 3 stroke and turn officials, 2 marshals, 2 clerk of course and our own table workers.

- PLEASE SIGN UP IN ADVANCE. We need to know we have all the volunteer jobs covered. Some are out of town so others may need to take an extra turn on Monday!
- Your swimmers should bring a least 2 towels and or a blanket. Bugs will be out so bug spray is also an option. Please make sure you check the lost and found and the “goggle drawer” in the guards’ office. Lost swimming items are piling up!
The Arlington Forest Grill will be open and ready to serve you delicious burgers, dogs and other delicious treats! Come hungry!
