HEAT SHEET - The Heat Sheet and Meet Entries will be sent out on Tuesday afternoon.

VOLUNTEERS - We are still need a few volunteers! When you arrive, check-in at our volunteer table. You will receive instructions here on how to do your job. Please ask questions if it is your first time!

PARKING - As you know, our parking is limited. You are welcome to drop swimmers off once our lot is full, but will then need to park on the street. PLEASE park on the POOL SIDE only of Hearthside Drive.

ARRIVAL - Unless you are a Dolphin Pod volunteer, plan to arrive by 4:15 PM to get set up, mark events, etc... If you need help, please seek a veteran parent or Dolphin Pod volunteer. We recommend you Mark Your Swimmer prior to arrival to save time.

DECK - Spectator chairs will be set up along the shelter side of the pool only. Peace Haven takes the deep end half and we give the shallow end half (including 2 rows of round tables and the tables alongside the Baby Pool fence) to the visiting team. We will be arriving first, so let’s be hospitable and make sure to share the deck space. Please bring extra chairs. No one is allowed on the steps in the shallow end or to have legs in the pool anywhere on deck during the meet. The Baby Pool will be closed.

10 & UNDER SWIMMERS - The Dolphin Pod is located along the fence at the deep end of the pool. It will be VERY important to instruct your 10&U swimmers to remain in the Dolphin Pod with their assigned parent volunteer so they can easily be found when their next events come around.

11 & OVER SWIMMERS - These swimmers have the freedom to roam during the meet, but it is a BIG responsibility keeping track of meet progression and lining themselves up for their own events. 11&Over swimmers need to take this responsibility seriously, we DO NOT want to be chasing them down before their events!

ORDER OF EVENTS - As a reminder, the 6&U backstroke event follows the completion of the 15-18 50 yd Freestyle event (#24).This allows 6&U swimmers to finish their meet sooner and reduces crowding on the deck.

* Let’s encourage good sportsmanship! Remind your Dolphin to stay in the water and shake hands with the other team at the end of the race. Let’s cheer for EVERYONE and never put others down - including our competitors.

HEAT WINNERS - NEW THIS YEAR!!! Instead of receiving a “Dolphin Dollar” all heat winners (including relays) will receive an AIRHEAD from a volunteer at the end of the race.

PLAYGROUND - The playground is open for use during the meet but is unsupervised. Parents are advised to monitor as necessary. The baby pool is not open for swimming.

CONCESSIONS - Hamburgers, chips, drinks, candy and snacks are available at the Snack Shack during the meet. PH members may charge their accounts or pay with cash or Venmo. Sunset Slush will be set up on the grass outside the entrance and prefers cash but accepts cash app, card, Venmo and Apple Pay. Price is $5 for 2 scoops and $10 for a full koozie. If you bought a koozie last year, bring it and you can reuse it for $1 per scoop.

CLEAN UP - Many hands make light work! At the conclusion of the last event we will ask Dolphins and their parents to help clean up. Moving chairs, picking up trash, etc. The Pizza Party will not start until the deck is put back in order. THANK YOU!
