Meet night - Wednesday

Our registration date for 2012 is March 17th from 9 am to noon at the clubhouse.  We will be ordering our Swimsuits this year through a local vendor Kastaways Swimwear, swim suit fittings will be on March 17th.  Our suit is solid black speedo with green trim with a legacy Park logo embroidered on. The boys suit is solid black.

Many of you have asked about the $100 work deposit.  For clarification, let us just say that most of our swim team family is a very involved group of parents.  You work at meets, fulfill your fundraising efforts and we are grateful for all your hard work.  There are a handful of parents who do not fulfil their obligations and we want to ensure they do.  It is simply not fair to those who volunteer to have to do more than their share.

This year we decided to charge a concession fee again.  This fee is $20.00 per family.  Most swim programs require their parents to bring concession items to each meet.  While we do some funds available in our budget for initial concession purchases, it costs us quite a bit to stock the concession stand for our intial opening and meets.  This money is usually made up at the meets, but in a year where we have  fewer meets, this cuts into our budget.  We simply thought that $20.00 would be easier than bringing cases of cokes, candybars, etc., to each meet for your families.

Our coach will be conducting Stroke Clinics on Saturday mornings as soon as the pools open.  We will forward e-mails to you informing you of the details.  All you have to do is e-mail us to let us know you are coming and bring your check on the day of the clinic.  The cost will be $12.00 per child, per clinic.  After we look at the calendar we may be able to offer a package deal as well for multiple clinics.  These clinics are optional, focus on one or two particular strokes and provide children with intensive stroke instruction in one area.  If you did not attend last year, speak with some of our returning parents.

We will be attending the Cobb County Coordinators Meeting in March.  We will learn the dates of our home meets at this time.  In May we will work out a sign up schedule for Meet Jobs and Concession Stand Weekend Shifts.  We will be posting the meet jobs on the website and you may e-mail us at anytime with changes.  Remember it is your responsibility to find a replacement if you cannot fulfill your duties.  We certainly do not have a problem with family members (16 and over please) fulfilling your responsibilities (we call those “service opportunities” in my family).

Please let us know if you have any questions.

We will try to keep our website up to date so check for the latest information.  Please let us know if you have any other questions.
