This is our FINAL week of the 2023 Swim Season! Our last practice is tomorrow, Monday, July 17th.

🐬Meet 6: Our very last meet of the season will be this Tuesday, July 18th at HOME vs. Zebulon. We have a LOT of Junior Dolphins swimming during this meet–be ready for some exceptional cuteness and help us cheer them on!

Swimmers will need to be ready to get into the pool at 5:00 for warm-ups.

Please consider walking to the pool if you are able, to free up spaces for parking. If you are driving, please be sure to park at the top of the hill to leave room for the visiting team to park close to the pool. We extend this courtesy to the visiting team at each home meet. Park with your car facing inward toward the field to allow for as many cars as possible to park. Once inside, remember, we gather on the far side of the pool. Please consider bringing your own chairs and pop-ups for shade.

Concessions: We will have our usual assortment of concessions available to purchase: hamburgers, hot dogs, philly cheese steaks, snow cones, and other snacks and drinks!

Volunteers: We are still in need of some positions filled for this week’s meet: timers, meet maestro assistant, and ribbon counter. If you have not already filled your 4-5 volunteer slots, please consider filling in for this last meet. Please sign up on SwimTopia.

Gone List: The following families have marked themselves “not attending” this meet. If your swimmer will not be at the meet, and you are not on this list, or if your child gets sick that day or something else comes up, please let us know ASAP.

It is a fantastic opportunity for a business to support an organization that promotes participation, sportsmanship, self-development, and enjoyment through the sport of swimming, as well as promote your business to hundreds of families in the Raleigh area.
