DECEMBER 8:

This year's Marist Swim Club's Christmas Meet will have an abundant number of swimmers.  We will need the patience, cooperation and participation from ALL MSC parents / family members in order for the meet to run as smoothly as possible.  This meet  is very popular among coaches, parents and swimmers alike due in part to the professionalism and hard work put forth by the MSC volunteers and coaches.  This year  we hope will be no different.  Please contact me at the following number / address in order to volunteer for the various meet jobs.  A friendly reminder that your obligation requires you to work each session that your child / children are swimming.  Thank you in advance.

NOVEMBER 10:

Hello Visiting Teams!

We have been working hard to prepare for the Viking Classic this weekend. We hope your swimmers are all well and ready to swim fast.

Just a few things to help everyone prepare for the meet. 

1.) Please remind all your coaches that they must wear their USA Swimming Credentials so that they are visible.  

2.) The warmup for Friday will begin at 1:00 p.m.   Lane assignments will be posted. Warm-ups will begin at 7:30 a.m. for both Saturday and Sunday morning and will be posted Friday night.  

Marist coaches ask that Saturday and Sunday morning swimmers (9-10 and 13-14) be there by 7:15am.  (A few 11-12 swimmers were sent home with a note saying to be at the pool at 7:15.  This is an error.  Only 9-10 and 13-14 swimmers swim in the morning)

Saturday and Sunday afternoon swimmers (8 & Under, 11-12 and Open) warm-ups are scheduled to begin at 1:00pm

 3.) Parking - Please advise the visiting parents to only park in lined spots in the lots. There is more than enough parking on both ends of the schools. The Town has informed us that they WILL ticket and tow cars not parked in legal lines spots. 

4.) The swimmers will be on deck on Friday and will be seeded from the gym on Saturday and Sunday. Please encourage swimmers to dress appropriately. They can bring mats to sit on and hand held toys, cards, etc. No ball playing will be allowed. We believe that your swimmers will be great examples on how to sit in the gym properly and to respect the school's property. Encourage parents to visit the gym often to help us insure a safe environment for all swimmers. Having one or two parents sit with swimmers in the gym is ideal to assist them with making sure they get to their events. Please remind them to have their personal items labeled and put away when they are swimming. VAC will not be responsible for any lost, stolen, or damaged property.

 5.) Please take note so that you can plan accordingly, relays are held in the middle of each session.

 6.) Just a reminder for Session 2 swimmers - they are to supply their own timers and counters.

7.) We are encouraging that after swimming their event - all swimmers return back to the gym to keep the deck as clear as possible for everyone's safety. 

8.) We will have a full concession stand, t-shirt vendor, swim gear vendor, and action-shot photographer on hand to make your swimmer's weekend at the Classic a memorable and enjoyable experience.
