Swim Meet Sign-ups are OPEN - Mandatory attendance declaration for everyone, especially those who will miss a swim meet.

• Families with only Developmental Group swimmers do not need to volunteer or attend or declare their attendance until their swimmer starts competing.
• EVERYONE else MUST declare "Attending" or "Not Attending".
• No need to tell me when you'll attend practice, but I NEED to KNOW your swim meet ATTENDANCE plans. This, more than anything else in our scheduling, is the TOP PRIORITY. 
• Although it is generally expected that swimmers will attend all meets, we completely understand that families go on vacation or have other family obligations that require swimmers miss a meet, so no worries. For our long time swim families, of course, it's great to take vacation in August!!  :) HaHa

Attendance Declaration Instructions

• On GPS.Swimtopia.com, go to "Meets/Events".
• Click on "Meet Entry" and/or "Job Signup" to the right.
• Click on "Edit" at the bottom.
• Choose "Attending" or "Not Attending".
• Leave notes if arriving late or leaving early, or requesting an event. Occasionally, I can work in an individual event request to the team line-up, but please know that is not the priority for dual meets and can be worked in only every now and then.
• Volunteer Jobs - Each competition group family only needs to work two dual meets. Swim meets will not run without 20-30 volunteers signed up each time.

Also, don't forget to download our Swimtopia mobile app to get updated info before, during, and post meet.
