Good Afternoon Barracuda families! 

We have received our meet information for tomorrow's meet form our host team, Hannary West! Please read through this carefully. 

We are asking that you have your swimmers at the meet and ready to go no later than 5 pm. We need to get everyone all marked up (or you can do it with the Heat Sheet attached before you arrive). Our warm ups are right at 5:25, and the meet will begin right at 6 pm. 

Bring your chairs, and be courteous to the host team, our team parents and the swimmers! I will be on deck to assist if you need anything! 

If you are volunteering for this meet, please arrive ready for your pre meet meetings at 5:15! These are super important to be able to start the meet on time! 

A couple county mandated policies to remember: 

-no alcohol on is allowed 

-no glass bottles or dishes allowed

-no pets are allowed 

Please reach out to me with any questions you may have! My cell is 225-588-8887!

Welcome North Forke Plantation to Hanarry West! We are looking forward to a fun and encouraging experience for all our swimmers and families. We hope the following will provide your team with some helpful information. We want you to have everything you need for the meet, so please ask questions if we’ve left anything out.

Hanarry West is the second oldest team in the Gwinnett County Swim League, which means our pool is too. So while you may notice some dated items, we’ve worked hard the past few seasons to update our signs – plus, this season we have brand new lane lines and backstroke flags!

FOR FAMILIES:

Parking-Please park on the pool side of the street – there will be signs indicating this or look for which side of the street everyone else has parked on. Please be respectful of neighbors and do not block driveways, walk through yards or leave trash behind.

Visiting Team Area-Our pool deck opens for the meet at 4:45 p.m. As you enter the pool, our visiting team area is in front of you -- to the right of the pool. You can view the meet layout in the attachment below. All spectators should bring folding chairs to sit on. Walkway space should be left on the side of the pool and down the middle of the pool deck with plenty of room for timers, judges, swimmers, and walking space on the turn end.

Heat Sheets & Results-There will be no paper heat sheets for sale at the meet. But computer volunteers will post results on top of the HW, by the entrance to the pool area, as they are available.

VolunteersFirst shift-Timers will meet at 5:40 p.m. outside the pool gate (in the parking lot so everyone can hear what is being said). First and second shift Stroke and Turn Officials will also meet outside the pool gate at 5:40 p.m. We will have a second shift timers meeting 15 minutes before the 2nd volunteer shift begins in the parking lot. There will be an announcement made to remind volunteers.

Our bullpen and staging volunteers have a meeting in the staging area at 5:30 p.m. Visiting team staging volunteers are welcomed to join this meeting.Our computer volunteers will be set up in the pavilion (between the bathrooms and concession stand). The visiting team’s computer volunteer should bring their computer (with charger) to check times on. We try to save as much paper as possible, so we won’t be printing out times for your volunteer to check.

Concessions-Like most teams, the Hanarry West Concession Stand is the team’s primary fundraiser for the season. We appreciate you dining with us and supporting our team. We accept cash and Venmo. This week’s menu: Grilled Burger & hot dogs, veggie burger, baked potatoes, baked ziti, beef empanadas, nachos, chili, pasta salad, fruit, chips, desserts and more! And a variety of drinks.

Meet Etiquette-We ask that the teams be respectful of the visitor’s area and dispose of all trash at the conclusion of the meet. Due to the volume of families in the pool deck and to ensure swimmers can hear the starter instructions, please do not play any music, movies, etc. from your mobile devices or use noise makers. The pool area is a no smoking or vaping, and glass free facility.

Inclement Weather-During inclement weather, all swimmers and families are required to clear the pool deck and return to their vehicles to safely wait out the weather until further notification via a Swimtopia alert. If the meet is canceled due to weather, our makeup day is Saturday morning.

Have a great night,

Christina van Maanen & Patricia Heys
