The meet this weekend is our only outdoor meet hosted by the Hanna Seals Swim Club. It takes about three hours to get to Hanna so camping or staying at a hotel is usually the option people go for.

Warmups are at 7:30am so please check in with coaches by 7:15am. Due to the number of swimmers signed up for this meet not all the coaches will be attending the meet. That being said, the coaches attending (Audrey, Hilary, and Joe) will take those who are coached by Miranda and Steph.
IMPORTANT MEET INFO!!
The meet is outdoors so be prepared for the weather. If it is good weather everyone will be camping outside. There is a grassy area that people can set up tents and chairs. Umbrella's are recommended as it may be hot and there will be little shade. Incase of bad weather there is an arena that we will be able to use to set up camp. If not, be ready for hot weather and bring supplies such as SUNSCREEN and lost of water.
FAMILY RELAY
At the end of the meet families are given the opportunity to swim together on a relay. There must be at least three family members on the relay. It's a fun chance fore parents to swim with their children. However, it is time permitting.
Food/Concession
There is a concession available inside the arena. As of today the weather is said to be sunny and a high of 25 degrees so drinking lots of water is recommended. Fruit is always a good choice to keep the swimmers refreshed giving them fluids and good sugars.
THEME
The meet is a Hawaiian theme. Costumes are encouraged. Who knows, you may see your coaches sporting some fashionable grass skirts and colourful flowers again this year :)
