PAC Winter
North Penn Meet / Snack Table / SWAC Fall Fun Invitational                               

Message from the President
Dear Parents-
Our first meet is this Saturday! I am really excited about our opportunity and look forward to seeing how we do against one of the best teams in the League. There are a few things that I would like to remind everyone of as we go into our first meet:

Double Dual: This is a unique circumstance where both Boys and Girls will be swimming together. It is our first and only meet that will be run this way. Please plan for our time to be extended based on the increased number of events and swimmers. You should expect to be at the pool until at least 7:00PM, and everyone should expect to stay for the whole meet.

Conduct: With a large North Penn Team visiting our pool, it will be imperative that our team conduct themselves in an appropriate manner. All swimmers are expected to be on the deck, not in the stands or locker rooms. Locker room conduct includes safety first, no running, no balls and no horseplay. On the deck, we ask that all team members sit together and do not leave the deck without talking to a coach first. There are many swimmers and events to coordinate and if we are unaware of your child's whereabouts, the whole experience is impacted.

Attendance: It is ABSOLUTELY critical to know if your child will not be in attendance. We will be including everyone in the lineup, so an unexpected absence has dramatic effects. We understand that there can be health circumstances that may arrive last minute, but we otherwise need to know if your swimmer will NOT be in attendance by Wednesday. Please contact your respective coach directly, phone numbers and emails are all on the website.

This meet will be a HUGE test for our pool and our Meet Directors, so your support and patience will be extremely important. I am excited for our first meet and want to wish every swimmer the best of luck on the start to our season.

GO GATORS!!!
- Matt Bashaar, PAC Winter President
