Volunteering

 

All Our Meets Are Run By Volunteers!
We are proud of our reputation of running efficient and enjoyable swimming and diving meets.  To continue this tradition, it is essential that parents of all swimmers and divers fulfill a minimum of 4 volunteer shifts per family. Sign up opportunities will be available before the start of the season and information will be given at the Parent Kick off meeting  Volunteer shifts range from timing at a swim meet to help with social events.  All training and information will be provided.  No prior experience or knowledge is required.  It's a fun way to help our team and necessary in order for us to continue to provide quality programs at such a low fee.  

Please see the sign up genius volunteer page

 

PARENTS PLEASE ALSO DON'T FORGET TO FILL OUT YOUR CHILDREN'S AVAILABILITY FOR MEETS ON THE SIGN UP GENIUS PAGE.  WE PAY A FEE FOR EACH SWIMMER AND DIVER ENTERED INTO A MEET. UNKNOWN ABSENCES COST OUR TEAM.

The Shack is not only a concession stand but a home away from home that is managed by Vicky Allison and is located at Birchwood Lake.
