A few notes for you on this beautiful Sunday evening...

1.  City Meet on Friday was a fun day!  

We had 35 athletes compete for New Sherwood, which included 16 10Us, 9 11&O and 10 19&O Stingray alumni, coaches and parents!  Our Top 3 female scorers were 8U Libby Keit (64 pts), 22 yo alum Laurin Potter (40 pts) and 8U Sophie Anderson (37 pts). Our top 3 male scorers  were 19 yo alum Owen Armentrout (40 pts), 10U Reid Bartley (34 pts) and 10U Cash Kirley (28 pts). Full Meet Results will be available tomorrow.  Libby Keit earned the title of 7-8 Girls Individual High Point winner - claiming 1st place in each of her 4 individual races and setting 2 new City Meet records in 25 and 50 Free!!  Congrats to Libby and all of our competitors!!  Enjoy our PHOTOS from the day.

2. Pep Rally Potluck Dinner which was planned for tomorrow has been CANCELLED due to low sign ups and iffy weather. We are planning a Muddy Creek Greenway Cleanup and Ice Cream Sundae Party Sunday 7/2 afternoon (time TBD). Stay tuned.

3.  Meet Declarations - the season is winding down quickly with only 2 wks to go.  Please go ahead and declare meet availability for our remaining meets - Sherwood @ home and League Finals.  PLEASE make no assumptions as to whether your swimmer will qualify for League Finals, please simply declare IF they are available. Carpooling is a always an option if necessary.

VOLUNTEER SIGNUP - We need 2 more timers (because BBF has 8 lanes!) The Job Signup will remain open until midnight tonight. If you haven’t already signed up, please see how you can help.

PARKING - BBF parking lot is first come first serve.  When lot is full, street parking is available on the pool side of the road.  Please observe all NO PARKING signs and avoid blocking driveways.  

ARRIVAL - SZ volunteers should plan to arrive by 4:30 PM to assist SZ and Clerk of Course set up. All others should plan to arrive by 4:40 PM for check in with a coach before getting settled. As usual, we recommend you complete EHL body marking (including name/age/NS on back of right shoulder) prior to arrival to save time and reduce chaos.

DECK - Our New Sherwood visitor side will be on the deep end side of the pool, however tables/umbrellas are available for all to use.  Plan to bring deck chairs.  Tents are also permitted. 

STINGRAY ZONE - We will run SZ and Clerk of Course similar to all of our other meets. SZ will be set up under a covered pavilion on the far right side of the deck, near the diving board, and a table table will be present with volunteer clipboards. Reminder: 10Us should hang in the SZ until all of their events are completed. Please be sure to redirect your kids back to this area after their events and/or if they roam away, so SZ parents don't have to chase them down.

CONCESSIONS - Concessions will be selling pizza, Chick-fil-A, snacks and drinks.  Cash or Venmo payments accepted.  No bills over $20 please.  Note: Our Stingray Bucks are eligible for use only at home meet concessions.

MISC BBF FACILITY RULES -

• The pool is CLOSED to all except competing swimmers.
• The zero entry shallow end of the pool is CLOSED during the meet. Please help keep swimmers and other children out of this area. 

POST MEET DINNER - Join us for a post meet dinner following the meet.  Location TBD.
