Wavemakers Weekly, 6/14
Hi Wavemakers!
Happy early Father's Day to all Wavemaker dads! I hope you all enjoy your weekend! We only have 1 full week and a half week left, which is insane.
We are looking for a couple parents to take over rolls for next season/shadow. We'd like to find someone now so we can transition while we're all still together. We will need someone to take over spiritwear/sponsorships for next season and also someone to shadow our current treasurer as next year will be her last. If you are interested in either, let me know!
Please read all info below:

VOLUNTEERS FOR TUESDAY
We need a few more volunteers for Tuesday. Please to to mtps.swimtopia.com, click on calendar, and job sign up. Thanks in advance!
TEAM PICTURES
We have a new photographer this year as last year's person isn't doing sports anymore. She has 3 options for people who want to purchase, attached to this email. Pics are on June 16, at Princeton Square, starting at 5PM. We ask everyone who can make it to come, even if you aren't buying pictures. And if your child has a team suit, they will wear that. Thanks!
NOTE FROM HUNTCLIFF
Parking: We will have a volunteer responsible for directing cars for where they can park. Our main lot fills up quickly and depending on whether our overflow field might not be available. We ask everyone to carpool when possible.
If we are not able to use the field then cars will need to park on the road going up the hill. We ask that they only park on the right side when heading up the hill.
If we are able to use the field, we are only able to park around the perimeter of the field. The center of this field is a flood zone and has caused cars to get stuck when they do not follow this request.
Seating:
We have limited seating around the pool for spectators. We suggest the visiting team set up camp in the field just north of the pool. We have an event counter that will be visible from the field as well as the pool deck in the upstairs balcony area. Please bring tents, chairs, bug spray and blankets so your team will be more comfortable. Our field and pool is located very near the Chattahoochee River. It is a beautiful site to enjoy. We ask that families keep an eye on their children and remind them that the river is not like the pool and the current can be very strong. We have a playground in the area that will be taped off. We ask that no one plays on the playground during the swim meet.
TEAM PARTY
More details to come, but please mark your calendars for the evening of June 26 for our team party, at Mark Trail!
NOTE ABOUT LAST DUAL MEET
