Highlights & links from tonight's parent meeting:

1. Please make sure you are registered through the parks department & swimtopia.

Parks Registration: https://bellefontaineoh.myrec.com/info/default.as...

SwimTopia: https://bellefontainesummerswim.swimtopia.com/reg...

We will use the SwimTopia site constantly throughout the season for updates, registration for meets, and volunteer sign up. Our meet sign ups will open tomorrow! Choose "Meets & Events" and "Sign up Calendar"

Also, make sure to purchase a pool pass - league policy.

2. Reminder - all practices and meets are optional. We ask that swimmers try to attend at least 2 practices per week in order to see improvement throughout the season. All swimmers MUST be registered for each meet they wish to participate in (registration for meets closes one week prior to the meet).

3. Volunteers - we need your help! At each meet (home and away) we are required to provide timers, officials, runners, and bullpen workers. Please sign up to help us out! The more help provided by families the more coaches are available to truly coach your swimmers. **Let me know if you are interested in officiating but have done so in the last 2 years.**

4. Items for Purchase (all optional!)

Team suits can still be purchased through Poco Loco - this is optional - we do get a team price on a quality suit but swimmers can wear ANY suit for practices & meets.

Poco Loco Swim Shop Password: Bellefontaine

Team Clothing - again, totally optional. Orders due June 10th.

5. Team picture will be taken prior to our first home meet on June 22nd @ 8 AM.

6. Join Remind! I will send out links when website updates are made, notifications about meets and practices, all cancelation information. Text @7dkb9c to 81010

7. Finally, we host Championships again this season and I will be looking for volunteers to help everything run smoothly. As a reminder, championship entries are limited and swimmers must compete in at least 2 meets prior to champs to be eligible.

Attached to this email are all of the documents given out tonight. Please let me know if you have any questions. We are so excited to get back to the pool! Practice starts Monday!
