There is a MANDATORY number of volunteer sessions (minimum of 6 but we usually need as much extra help as possible) required to successfully host these fundraiser meets; if you don’t do these – you will forfeit your $250 work bond deposit.
You may get other family members to help out – however they must be high school aged or older. When signing up please state who is signing up in the comments. Sign up will be done through Sign Up Genius. Please note, at least 5 of your 6 volunteer sessions need to be as timers.
Running a swim meet involves many moving parts, and having parent volunteers allows us to efficiently manage the event without the need to hire external staff. This keeps our costs down and allows us to allocate more resources directly to our swimmers and programs. Without your help, we would need to raise enrollment fees to cover these additional costs, which is something we want to avoid.
Volunteering at a swim meet is a fantastic way to get involved in the swim community, meet other parents, and directly contribute to the success of our events. We offer a variety of roles, so there’s something for everyone, regardless of experience or comfort level.
When we’re hosting a swim meet, we’ll send out a signup list where you can choose the date, time, and role that best fits your schedule. Since we often host events over a weekend, you’ll need to volunteer for multiple time slots and/or days to meet the minimum volunteer requirement. We recommend checking which session your swimmer is assigned to so you can decide whether you’d like to volunteer during their session or at another time during the weekend.
Volunteering is not just a requirement; it’s an opportunity to be part of a vibrant community, support your child, and have some fun along the way. We’re looking forward to seeing you at the pool and appreciate your commitment to helping our swim meets run smoothly!
