CRASH AREA - All swimmers, parents and spectators must sit on grassy areas on the outside the fence. Please make sure to bring tarps or blankets that you don't mind getting dirty as the crash area can be damp. Tents are welcome in the grassy area. We also recommend mosquito repellent.

• PLEASE STAY OFF THE LANDSCAPING.
• The stacked plastic pool chairs may NOT be used at swim meets
• Willow Farms has installed a smoking bench. Stay off that grassy area and away from the smoking bench when crashing. It is only for smokers. If you are a smoker, please deposit your butt in the receptacle provided.

SPECTATORS - Come in and watch your swimmer, then please make room for the next family. The north and south gates will be both an entrance and an exit, but should remain closed when not in use. A friendly reminder that no parents are allowed behind the blocks and NO ALCOHOL is all allowed on premises.

CONCESSIONS - We will have walking tacos, pizza, drinks and snacks in the Cabana and Lilo’s Shaved Ice in the parking lot. Heat sheets, highlighters, and Sharpies will also be available for sale on the pool deck by the south gate for $1.00 each.

NEXT WEEK is Coach Appreciation Week (June 24-28)

We are so excited to shower our amazing coaches with extra love and goodies next week to show our appreciation for all their hours and effort spent pouring into our swimmers.

A sign-up genius will be coming soon to provide our coaches with breakfast & goodies each day and swimmers are welcome to drop off notes, favorite treats, or additional gift cards for the coaches into the personalized bins/bags that we'll have out at each pool.

Rookie Families - we are also celebrating our fabulous Rookie Assistants next week! We will have lists of their favorites to help you out. We will not leave bins out for them, so you are welcome to give your RA's their gifts directly.

Please let Michelle Jeffries know if you have any questions!
