Q: How do I mark my swimmer's arm before a meet?

A: Do not mark arms until you arrive at the meet and have verified that events and heats have not changed.  Once you are certain of the events/heats/lanes, may mark your swimmer's arm.  Watch this Video for tips on marking arms.

Q: What volunteer positions are available and how do I sign up?

A: There are 4 main positions - every meet needs 16 lane timers, 1 head/lead timer, 1 runner, and 2 console operators.  Note: at every home meet, we need all hands on deck to help set up and tear down.  Visit this page for more information about each position and how to register for volunteer positions.
