Hey Sharks - Hope everyone is enjoying the warmer weather.  I'm pretty sure our swimmers will welcome the resulting increase in water temperature:).  Here's this week's update.  The schedule is also posted on www.rivershyresharks.com.

Meet RSVP and Job Sign-Up

MOCK MEET - Thursday, May 27th - RSVP closes tonight @ midnight

Please go to www.rivershyresharks.com >> Swim Meets section and RSVP for Mock Meet participation by tonight at midnight.  The Meet will be seeded by the coaches on Monday evening.  For Mock Meet only, swimmers can swim in as many individual events as they wish and are encouraged to do so as this will give us updated seed times to be used for next week's Dual Meet seeding.  We're also planning to swim relays during Mock Meet to get base times for seeding.

When you RSVP, please also select your preferred job assignment, we need all participating families to volunteer at Mock Meet.  Volunteers will have the best seats in the house as all positions except computer will be on deck:).  Descriptions of the job responsibilities can be found in the 2021 Parent Guide. Stay tuned for information on Parent viewing areas during Mock Meet, we're working on a plan for this.
