Officials:

Visiting clubs are asked to assist us in running a successful meet by providing officials in Stroke & Turn and/or Timing. With 10 lanes, we require a large number of volunteers! Potential volunteers are requested to check in with the Meet Manager during warm-ups to see where they can sign up to help. Ideally, a minimum of two volunteers from each club would be appreciated. We thank you in advance for your support!
