Meet Results + More

This week’s updates:
Meet Saturday 6/11: This is an away meet at the Applewood Athletic Club. We will need 6 timers per shift (3 shifts) for this meet. The sign up is available here. Warm up is at 6:30 am.

Deciphering the Top Times report: you will see the following letters next to your swimmers times: small s then C, B, L, S or nothing.
– the small “s” just means seconds
– C and B times mean you are getting closer to a League time.
– L times are League times (and are also called “A” times on the Qual Time sheet)
-big “S” times are State times.
– If there is no letter, then it is considered a D time.
The Top times report will be updated after each dual meet and will simply have the fastest (or top time) for you swimmer in each individual event that they have swam up to that date.

Wednesday 6/15 @5:30-pm: Ice Cream Social / Tie-Dye Night! Back by popular demand. We missed putting this event on the calendar and have added it back. This is a NON-SWIMMING event and the whole family is welcome to participate. We will meet in the upper grass area to tie-dye shirts and eat ice cream. We will have white t-shirts and/or tank tops to sell or you are welcome to bring your own shirt, socks, shorts, etc. We will supply the dye, gloves and expertise at this fun event. We ask that you only tie-dye one item.

Photos of the team: If you are on Facebook head over to our site Green Mountain Swim Team. We have posted pictures from Saturday’s meet. We will also have a professional photographer take team/individual pictures on Wednesday 6/29 at 7:30am, along with a pancake breakfast for the team.

Saturday Meet + Night Practices

Saturday Meet: We have our first dual meet on Saturday with the Stingrays. We both have large teams, so the meet will be 5-6 hours long. We still need volunteers. Please click here for the direct link to sign up: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/4090d4dabac28a1ff2-gmst4

Meet Reminders:
-Grass: we are still staying off the lower grass and slopes. You are welcome to head to the upper grass area and spread out. Walking over the grass is fine. Just don’t set up and stay on the new grass.
– Heating Shed and Blocks: you are welcome to get your swimmer to the heating shed. This helps us stay on time. After that parents should not be in the heating shed area or behind the blocks. Only timers, swimmers and coaches are allowed on that part of the deck.
– Questions for the coaches: Please wait until after the meet to ask the coaches questions or seek out a Board Member who will have more time to spend with you. For safety reasons, we need our coaches to keep eyes on the pool and swimmers and not get distracted while they are coaching. If there are kids in the water, then their attention will be there. Thanks for understanding.

Night Practices start next week!
Night practices are for upper division only (13 years and older).
Tuesdays / Thursdays from 8:00 – 9:00pm
Note: all upper division swimmers that would like to join in these practices must talk to Coach Emma or Coach Ethan. We will not hold practice if we aren’t getting swimmers, so please don’t just show up without checking in with the coaches first.
