Warm-Ups: Warm-ups will begin promptly at 4:45 pm. Please have your swimmer on the Cumberland pool deck and ready to swim by 4:30!

Pictures: Immediately following warm-ups we are going to try and get a team picture by the bathhouse/ mural of the swimmer on the blocks! Also, please take pictures tonight during the meet if you can! We are going to be putting a slide show together for our banquet and will be asking for folks to share their favorites!

Spirit Night: This is our last home meet of the season and we will be celebrating team spirit night!!!  Wear all of your blue and white and feel free to get crazy with blue sharpies & body paint & hairspray & beads & anything else fun and blue!!!

Volunteering: Please check in with Mike Abraham when you arrive at the meet to confirm your volunteer assignment for this evening. We still have open positions for this evening. Parent volunteers are vital for our team. Thank you for stepping up!

Supplies: Don't forget a swim suit (tie-back suits and suits advertising other teams are not allowed), a swim cap (plain, Cumberland, or no cap), goggles, a towel, and a water bottle. Our concession stand will be open for business!

Heat Sheet: The heat sheet and a list of events by swimmer are attached to this email and are available on the swim meet schedule on our website. The heat sheet contains all of the information about which events your swimmer will be participating in tonight and which lanes they will be swimming in. Some of you may find that your swimmers are swimming up (participating in events for an age group older than their own). Summer swimming is a team sport, and we have carefully placed all swimmers in events to maximize points for our team and to give everyone as many chances to swim as possible.

Team Spirit: Most of all, we want our swimmers to have fun, swim hard, and enjoy supporting each other. If possible, please stay through the end of the meet to cheer on all of our swimmers (and the Waterdogs swimmers too!!!). We can't wait to see you tonight. Go Cumberland!!!
