Hello again dive families!

This coming Sunday morning, we will travel to Bethesda to take on the Carderock Cudas.

Remember to liaise with Coach Emily this afternoon or tomorrow so that we know whether to expect your diver on Sunday.

I will be there by 8:15 and Erika will arrive a bit later.

For this meet, we still need two second-half judges (on duty for the 11 & ups from approximately 10:30am-1pm) and a family with a pickup or a minivan to transport our tent back to Manor Woods. Visit the Swimtopia calendar to sign up.

Below are all the details from our hosts.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Go Manor Woods!

Parking: 

Since we are starting early, we should have plenty of spaces available for your team. If spaces fill up, we allow parking on our basketball courts. Finally, there is street parking. Please ask your team to respect the signs and only park on the designated side of the street and do not block any driveways.

Food: 

Carderock will provide water and snacks for volunteers. We have a snack bar that serves limited drinks and snacks. I believe it opens at 11 am, so please remind your team to bring snacks and water if they want something more substantial. 

Pool Rules: 

The pool is open to all divers and their families (as long as there is a lifeguard on duty). Adult swim is for 15 mins at the end of every hour.

Shade: 

We provide multiple viewing locations, and many provide shade, including the area reserved for your team. You may want to bring a tent or two for your divers while they wait for the board. (Chelsie's note: the majority of their pool deck is shady in the morning and we will have a tent for the divers.)
