Dear Storm Family,
I would like to thank
everyone who helped out
with the mock meet,
results are posted to
our website hopefully
you got an idea of what
the meet will look like
this weekend.
We are going to need
some people to stick
around and help clean up
at the end, it takes a
while to tear down the
timing equipment and
pack it up, and we will
need help to move to our
storage unit across the
street. If we could have
a couple of dads or moms
who have trucks able to
return and assist with
tear down it will help a
lot.
We will be sending out
another email about this
weekend's meet and
volunteer duties needed.
We will also have a
schedule of the day's
events.
