Hello, BOLT families!
Thanks for a great start to the season. We are looking forward to our meet at Wild Timber this Thursday evening. We wanted to give you a few updates and some information that you will want to know for the meet.
Concessions
We are still taking concessions donations for the season. If you have not yet donated, please be sure to bring in your donations as soon as possible, as we hope to sell lots of concessions at our next home meet on the 14th.
Volunteering
If you have not yet signed up for your volunteer positions, please be sure to do so! You can still sign up at http://signup.com/go/fjHbfoU. If you sign up for a position, please remember that we are counting on you to be there. During our last home meet, we had a few people who did not make it for their assigned positions. When that occurs, everybody else has to work harder to get things done. Thanks for your help!
Missing Meets
If you are going to miss any meet, including this Thursday, please let us know by going to the website at https://thunderbolts.swimtopia.com/swim_meets and click on the meet that you are going to miss. Thanks!
Meet information
The Wild Timber team is sponsoring the collection of small crayon packs (no more than 12 in a box), coloring books, and drawing pads for Children’s Healthcare or Atlanta at the meet. They would love for us to participate as well! They are planning to have a "green out" this Thursday, and encourage us to all dress in a color of our choice. Of course, for us this means PURPLE!
Results & Heat Sheets- Times will be posted on the lower clubhouse windows. Ribbons and scoring will be done in there as well.
Heat sheets will be distributed electronically for this meet. They will have a limited number available for purchase for $2. We will be distributing the PDF of the heat sheets later in the week, when it becomes available.
Parking - The Wild Timber pool address is
6235 Wild Timber Rd., Sugar Hill. Please remember to only park on one side of the street, and do not block any driveways or hydrants. There will be signs directing us on which side of the road to park.
Bullpens- Our bullpens will be between the park and volleyball/sand area on the grass. Please instruct the kids NOT to play on the tennis courts, volleyball court, and playground. Feel free to put up tents, etc.
Visitor Seating – As you enter the pool area, the visiting seating area is to the right of the pool. There are some areas blocked off for relay staging and to allow coaches room to move around the pool deck.
Concessions - They will be serving hamburgers, hot dogs, Chick-Fil-A, pizza, drinks, chips, and – of course – all your favorite candy!
Check-in:
When your family arrives, please check in with coach Katie. If you are volunteering, please check in with Venita. Our warm-ups should begin at 5:20.
Weather:
As always, if we need to pause the meet due to weather, please go to your cars but do not leave. We will provide updates via Remind over the course of the evening.
Wild Timber will have a Bubble heat (for little swimmers) prior to 6:00.
Go BOLTS!
Dave and Matt
