During the Meet

• Events - Heat Sheets and Session Report are attached.
• Timing - We will be using the Time Drops system. Download the Time Drop Live! app from the App Store or Google Play. They will announce at the meet what the code is.
• Relays - The events are the same as a dual meet, except that mixed (2 boys, 2 girls) free relays are added. In our division, swimmers will still be limited to 2 relays, so even though there are 3 relays per age group, your swimmer can swim at most 2. Also note that in dual meets, we typically have A & B relays and sometimes C, but at Divisionals, we will only have A because of the number of teams and the number of available lanes (and because NWAL rules say so).
• Concessions - Cash or Card

Concessions Stand will have premade items, snacks, chips, candy and drinks. The following hot items will also be available:

BREAKFAST - Donuts - Chick Fil A Chicken Sandwiches - Hot Coffee

LUNCH - Hot Dogs - Hamburgers & Cheeseburgers - Nachos - Cheese Quesadillas

Tikiz will also be there serving Snow Cones.

End of Meet

• End Time - Estimated end time is 3:46pm.
• Equipment Tear Down – We are ALL hot and tired and ready to leave at the end of the meet. Tent parents please help tear down your tent before you leave. We will have volunteers to help haul them away, but we need help collapsing the tents and folding the tarps. Your help is truly appreciated.
• Clean Up - Each Team will be responsible for the site clean-up of their own team’s set-up area. As you pack up your gear, please look around your area and pick up all the trash. If you see someone dropping trash, please remind them to pick it up.

Let's have a great meet! Go Bolts! Shock the Blocks!
