Swimmers and Swim Families:
In order for the Seymour Swim Club to be successful, we need volunteers! Parents please understand that if your child is a swimmer, your family is a “swim club family” and a volunteer commitment is required. Parents/family members are expected to participate in working at HOME swim meets as well as in volunteering/supporting the club with fundraising efforts/events/activities.
Sign-up sheets for this seasons HOME meets are posted on the bulletin board inside the pool entrance. We are looking for parents to sign up to be:
Timers: Sixteen volunteers are needed to time each home meet. The timer’s job is the backup to the timing system. The times off the stop watches are recorded on paper for each event. This job is very simple and gives you the best seat in the house for every event.
Runner: One volunteer is needed to pick up the slips of paper from the timers and turn them in to the scoring table. This job is very simple.
Seeding: One volunteer lines up the swimmer according to events so that the meet runs smoothly.
Scoring/Meet Manager: One or Two volunteers are needed to run the computer software that records the times for each swimmer/event. This job does require some training.
Concession Stand: Two volunteers are needed to run a basic concession stand selling heat sheets, candy bars, water, club apparel, etc.)
