Volunteering
Our team relies on our swim families to volunteer during the season in order to continue operating, particularly at meets. We have a points-based system to help us keep track, as follows:
- Most volunteer jobs are worth 5 points
- Families whose children compete in meets must earn at least 15 volunteer points. Of those, 10 points must be from helping at meets.
- Families whose children are not competing in meets must earn at least 10 volunteer points
