Teams, Please share the following with your parents. Please go to https://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040f48a4ab2ea7ff2-tristate and sign up to time a lane. There are STILL a lot of lanes and times that need someone to time. We can not start or continue the meet without having times time the lanes. Two timers are needed per lane per slot. Thank you!!

Teams, Also, please remember to keep the board informed of any changes to team contacts and coaches. You can send any changes to Meri.

Teams, Please remember to bring a copy of your meet flyer to the meeting tomorrow and/or email it to Meri as soon as possible. Thank you!!

Here is the link to the USA Swimming article detailing woven and taped/bonded seams. This rule went into effect September 1, 2020. Please make sure that your swimmers and their parents are aware of this rule. https://www.usaswimming.org/news/2020/08/24/tech-suit-restriction-for-12-and-under-swimmers Restricted 12 & under suits: https://www.usaswimming.org/docs/default-source/rules-regulations/tech-suit-restrictions/12-under-approved-suits-2-18-21.pdf Approved 12 & under suits: https://www.usaswimming.org/docs/default-source/rules-regulations/tech-suit-restrictions/12-under-approved-suits-2-18-21.pdf
