Tomorrow is the BIG DAY!!  It's finally time to CROC IT UP!! Our first dual meet of the season… and against our biggest longtime rival… the Wortham Whitesharks! Below is all the information you need to know so please read all the way through...

PEP RALLY- We will be handing out remaining team shirts & selling the rest along with team suits that were ordered from D&J Sports. Party officially begins at 6:00 with pizza and drinks for purchase along with swimming and games.

TEAM SUITS- I will have all remaining team suits for pick up at the pep rally today and at the meet tomorrow.

MORNING SETUP/PARKING- The gates will open at 6:15 am (set up team arrives at 6 am) and the circle drive will only be open until 7:30 so if you'd like to drive through and drop off your gear, make sure you are there before then. After that, the visiting team is setting up and it's not safe to have traffic in the parking lot. Parking in Sampson lot is easiest. Please observe all NO PARKING signs on Coles Crossing Drive. We need to be courteous to our non-Croc neighbors.

The 'front row' area above the retaining wall on the non-block end of the pool is reserved for diamond and platinum sponsor tents. Also there is no set up allowed on any paved area around the pool. The area outside of the gates is reserved for the visiting team so please set up inside the gated area.

WARM-UPS for our team will begin at 7:15 and they are also mandatory for all swimmers.

MANDATORY CIRCLE IN BY 7:15 AM- All swimmers MUST circle in by 7:15 tomorrow morning at the lap pool. The circle in boards will be hanging on the fence by the front gate. Swimmers need to find their name and circle it (or have our volunteer do so) so we know they are there. If a swimmer's name is not circled, the clerk of course assumes they are not there and they will be scratched from the meet.

WEATHER- Weather will be sunny & HOT tomorrow so bring plenty of sunscreen and hydrate, hydrate, hydrate!

WATER FOUNTAIN- We had some issues last week with swim caps being filled with water and then being thrown on other people. Please ask your swimmers not to do this or we will have to make the fountain unavailable for normal use.

VOLUNTEER CHECK-IN- Check in with the lead in your specific area. Our volunteer coordinator will be checking various areas throughout the day. If an emergency arises before tomorrow morning and you are unable to cover the shift you signed up for, you are responsible for finding someone to cover your shift & notifying the volunteer coordinator. If you have questions about your ‘job description’, there is a document section on the team website with explicit descriptions for each job. If you need assistance on Saturday, our volunteer coordinator can be found in the blue tent near the lane rope reel.

CONCESSIONS- We will have donuts, breakfast tacos & fresh fruit for breakfast. We will have burgers, hot dogs, pasta and pizza along with an array of snacks and candy along with water, Gatorade and sodas. We will be accepting cash & credit cards ($5 minimum). We will have the Smart Drinks truck there in the morning with coffee, tea & smoothies and Bahama Bucks will be there a little bit later. 

Let's get fired up for tomorrow!!  See you at the pep rally.  EAT 'EM UP, CROCS!
