Otters Updates Week of 7/14

L-S Otters Board
Hello!
 
We are in the final stretch of summer swim and there is a lot going on!
 
Tomorrow is our final  Dual Meet @ Home.  We will also be celebrating our 2 seniors.   Please arrive at the pool at 5:00pm, meet will start at 6:15pm.
 
We still have MANY jobs that need to be filled for tomorrow's meet.  Finish Judge for both halves, Meet Setup and Teardown, Ribbons, 2 Runners for second half, and 3 Stroke and Turn Judges.  These are all very important jobs and the meet will not start on time if these jobs aren't filled ASAP.
 
Concessions need many volunteers both in the concession stand and donating concession items.  Our concession stand is our main source of money raised to help the Otters.  As of now we have one person signed up.  We will not be able to run concessions if this continues.  It's a very easy job and you can step out when your swimmer is swimming.  We have a walkie talkie in the concession stand so you know what event we are on.
 
Please sign up for a job ASAP so we don't have to assign families to a job last minute.
 
Divisionals is this Saturday, July 19th.  Today is the deadline to declare your swimmer.  There are still 43 swimmers not yet declared.  The coaches need to work on the entries tomorrow because they are due to Overlook on Wednesday at 8am.   We can not late add, this is not like a dual meet.  Please sign your swimmer up ASAP today so we don't run into any issues.
 
We are to provide 3 timers to each session at Divisionals.  Divisionals this year are divided up into a morning session (Open, 14u and 12u) and afternoon session(10u and 8u).  We are still in need of 2 timers for the afternoon session.  So if you have a 10u/8u swimmer we need you to sign up to time in the afternoon session.  They will not start the meet if the LS lanes don't have a timer.  You do get in for free if you're a timer.
