READ MEET 1 - Info & Heat Sheet (coming soon -- I hope)
Parents,
I am so sorry this going out much later than I hoped. I am still waiting on the heat sheet from the other team. It was supposed to be provided 24 hr before meet starts. I have been in contact with the other team rep various times throughout the day. Here is the rest of the info for the meet tomorrow. I will send the heat sheet as soon as I get it. Please get some rest tonight! It is going to be an early morning. :)

1st Meet: Saturday May 28th
Where: 250 Viesca Street San Antonio, Texas 78209 (near Quarry Market) - click for directions
Opposing Team: ALAMO HEIGHTS POOL SHARKS
Check in: 7:10 AM (entrance of pool)
Warm up: 7:30 AM
Meet starts: 8:00 AM sharp!
** If you do not check in, we do not know you are at the meet & your swimmer will be scratched from his/her events!
** Please check your check-in slip for hand written changes.
** ALL parents, please make sure you also check in with our volunteer coordinator, Jennifer Bissen (will be at the check in table), to let her know you are here and to see if there are any open spots you can help with or if we needed to move you to a different volunteer spot.
Parking: There is adequate parking in two different parking lots.
Where to sit: Reminder -- we make every effort to sit as a team. Our team will be sitting in the grassy area near the meter pool. Bring chairs and pop up tents. When your swimmer is getting ready to swim, please walk up to pool deck to watch them.
Ready Bench: Located on the concrete (near the starting side). Please be aware of which event we are on and let your swimmer(s) know when they should be at ready bench -- look for the white board. Please remind your swimmers to show good sportsmanship to teammates and the opposing team!
Concessions: will be available (please bring small bills - $1 and $5 are great!)
Heat Sheets: Print at home and bring with you (WAITING ON OTHER TEAM TO SEND)
Emergency: Please call/text Kelly at (210)316-9086 or Mandy at (210) 260-0004! We will get word to Coach Claudia and all necessary meet personnel!
What to bring: Wear team suit, team cap, and team shirt. Please remember to bring chairs and pop up tents for shade. May also want to bring some bug spray. There is a list on the website of items needed for a meet. Click on Swim Meets, Preparing for a Meet -- this would be good for EVERYONE to review! **Reminder: baby pool is CLOSED during swim meets. 1st cap was provided by team -- if your cap breaks -- See Alana Harris to purchase another one for $8.
Special Notes about this pool: One of the blocks is broken so all swimmers will be diving from the side of the pool. Also this is a 20 yard pool (shorter than the Seven Winds Pool - 25 yards), so you will see faster times than normal. Keep that in mind when comparing times between meets.
Other Reminders:
- If your swimmers are in events 1-4, please make sure they are at ready bench immediately following team cheer!
- We have a lot of new families, so please step up and help if you see someone struggling or looking lost! We are a team and a family, it takes all of us to make these meets happen!
- Please show our wonderful Manta Ray sportsmanship with the opposing team!
- Most of all have fun and enjoy the meet! We are glad to have you all as part of the Manta Rays Family!
- ** Heat sheet WILL BE SENT LATER TONIGHT (FINGERS CROSSED). PRINT AND BRING HEAT SHEET WITH YOU!!
- LANE LINE UP & READY BENCH -- You will need a copy of the heat sheet to use during your Volunteer time -- PLEASE BRING A COPY OF THE HEAT SHEET -- I WILL HAVE CLIPBOARDS.
Please email Mandy or I, if you have any questions!
Go Manta Rays!
