Champs Meet Reminders:
You must check in with your Age Group by 6:45am each day. Please plan accordingly to allow time to park and walk to the Team Area.
Warmups will begin at 7:00am.
Every swimmer needs to be wearing sandals – the team areas are across the street from the pool area and swimmers will have to cross on blacktop.
Parents: please check in with the volunteer tent in our team area both mornings regardless of your shift! Volunteers will need to remain in their positions until they are relieved. Our volunteer coordinators will confirm a replacement if you are not relieved.
The events are split between the two days and 4 shifts a day rather than 2 (6 and under only swim Saturday). Each stroke is a shift, plus relays and finals is shift 4 each day. Finals and relays are expected to end around 5:30pm on Saturday and 4:30pm on Sunday.
Do not leave the meet without swimmers checking out with their coach and making sure they are not in a relay – remember, relays are at the end of the day!
All our swimmers should be drinking water throughout the meet even if they don’t feel thirsty. Parents bring extra water for yourselves, just being out in this temperature can be extremely exhausting.
Family set-up:
Our set-up team is required to complete the event set-up (scheduled from 4:00-6:00pm) before we can set-up our Age Group Tents in our assigned team area. Parents are allowed to set-up their personal tents on Friday night (sometime after 6:00pm) BUT ONLY AFTER THE DECK SET-UP AND AGE GROUP TENTS ARE SET-UP. If you arrive and the Rocklin Swim Team Age Group Tents are not in place, please do not set up your personal tents yet. Although tents are allowed to be left overnight, they must be weighted down (stakes or buckets).
Vendors:
Saturday –TYR, Kona Ice, Eden Coffee Cart, The Mini Donut Truck & Official League Champs Shirts
Sunday – Jolyn, Hagen’s Freeze, Eden Coffee Cart & Official League Champs Shirts
Snack bar provided by Sunrise; cash & card/tap pay accepted for payment.

Let me know if you have any questions!
