    Invitational Meet Information

    June 29th
    Invitational Information
     
     IF YOU ARE SWIMMING AT THE INVITATIONAL PLEASE READ ALL THE FOLLOWING IMPORTANT INFORMATION!
    All  individual entries for both Allstars and Ponderosa are in the Invitational binder at the pool.
     
     
    There are a large number of swimmers attending both Invitationals.  It would be great if all the age groups from the Waves would sit together during the meet.  This way we can all look out for one another and make sure no one will miss their event. 
    Because this is in an invitational meet, we will not have age group parents.  It will help if we all act as age group parents and listen for event numbers.  
     
    Please bring a black sharpie to mark event numbers on your swimmer. 
    There will not be a check-in for these meets.  We will however make sure all relay participants are in attendance to participate.  
     
    Below we have attached information about both Allstars and Ponderosa. Hopefully this will answer some questions you may have.
