Good Afternoon Cary City Meet Parents   -  Please take a few minutes and read thru the information below and take a good look at the attached .pdf file.

1.  We have big tent which is our home base  ( you will see our spot to the right of the yellow clerk of course block on the attachment)   There will be 1000+ swimmers on Saturday which means home base means home base.  The kids love to see their friends but it they aren't at home base they will miss there swims.  The meet runs fast and if they aren't with their group at the clerk tent they will miss their swim.

2.  Heather Hall & Lyra Rakusin are doing some tent decorating on Friday evening.   Time is TBD but please reach out if you & your swimmers would like to help decorate.

3. PAY ATTENTION to the parking information in the .pdf.   Primary parking will be at the Church across from Cary City Club -  overflow will be at Cary High School.    YOU MAY DROP OFF YOUR SWIMMERS in the designated area and send them to the tent and then go park.   

4. PAY ATTENTION -  Tangle wood will be one way in front of Cary City Club on Saturday.  LOOK AT the map -  you can only access it from Walnut Street.

5. DO NOT park at the Dairy Queen or Ollies lot or at the little shopping strip with the pizza place and sub shop -  They WILL TOW your car.   We watched this happen before.

6.  Kildaire Farms  age 10 and Under  will warm up in Lane 3 at 7:45.   You will go AS A GROUP with the Coaches .  Remind the swimmers.  OUR TENT is HOME BASE and we will look for you there.

7.  MATT GREENAN is the Grown up in Charge for the morning events.  Make sure your children check in with MATT or ME as soon as you arrive.  

8.  ONE VOLUNTEER Is needed to work in the morning as a KID PUSHER .  This is different than our meets -  you will walk the kids from the clerk tent to the chairs or behind the blocks getting them into the right places.  We can also split the shift if we can get 2 volunteers .  Nikki Pitts & I have used this system before and it works great but you both have to go to the morning meeting.   PLEASE SEE LYRA OR ME IF you can volunteer.

9. There will be concessions and food trucks.  Bring Cash because not all of them accept credit cards

10.  There will be Cary City Meet tee-shirts - $15 - cash or venmo.   The kids like these because they wear them at school and there is a comradarie.

11.  You will need to PRINT your own Heat Sheet.  They will NOT be available for Sale at the meet.

•HEAT SHEETS: Are now available to download and print on the official Cary City Meet Website and the Meet Twitter account (@CaryCityMeetCSC). . These two sources will also update during the day of the meet should information need to be broadcast out. o https://caryswimclub.org/cary-city-swim-meet-20/

12.   Stuff happens but please remember that the club paid for your swimmer to swim and a lot of work goes into coordinating the lanes/ the heats so if you committed to this meet please show up.   

13. Please bring your chairs , water bottles,  snacks tp share   - NO GLASS items  - extra towels and blankets or things for the kids to sit on.   Extra googles if you have them.  Also if you have cards/ games or things to keep them occupied while they are waiting that is a great idea.   

pro tip -  bring yourself a couple of cold towels that you can keep in your cooler - if it's hot you will be very happy you brought them   and bring your own coffee :)

.14.  Watch for more emails to come !!
