Hello All, thank you so much to the parents/caregivers who answered Kirsten Berg's call for timekeeping volunteers. Please know that your time and support make a difference to the swimmers and the club overall. Swim meets do not happen without parents/caregivers. If there are not enough timekeeping volunteers, scheduled swim meets such as this will be cancelled. When swim meets do not happen, your swimmers may not/cannot meet qualifying times to attend southern competitions, Canada Summer Games, provincials, nationals and even Olympic Trials competitions. Attached is the most recent list...
