This Week’s Meet: This Thursday, we swim against Pelham Falls. It is our out of division meet, and it is usually a super fun place to swim. They are a large team with a lot of 8&Unders, so we will all need to be patient during the first events and cheer on all the new swimmers. Good luck Foxcroft!

Where: Pelham Falls Pool, 6 Chatley Way Greer, SC 29651 (The main pool is to the right of the entrance as you pull into the neighborhood).

When: June 9th, starts 5:30 PM

• Swimmer Arrival Time: 4:30
• Warm Up Time: 4:45 (10&Under), 5:00 (11&Up) - Note: we are waiting for confirmation from PF. Will communicate by text if this changes.
• First half volunteers: Arrive no later than 5:00 PM. Volunteers will meet at a table by the lifeguard shack; find Ashley Wooten to check in. (Volunteer assignments can be viewed in the Swimtopia App).
• Officials Meeting: 5:15 (will communicate by text if this changes)

Parking/Construction:The construction on Batesville Road is relatively over and they are just working on clean-up so construction/traffic should not be an issue. The parking lot next to the pool is reserved for the guest team, but parking is limited. The field next to the pool will be open for parking as well. Once those two areas are full, please park on side streets around the pool. There is NO PARKING allowed on Pelham Falls Drive.

Swimmer Areas: There will be an area on the grass behind the pool and near the volleyball court set aside for Foxcroft. They will provide a tent, and the area is shaded in the afternoon/evening.

Spectators: Spectators are welcome! Chairs, not so much! On the pool deck, chairs will only be allowed at the end of the pool (opposite the swim blocks). They will have 2 sets of bleachers set up on the side so spectators can come and sit and watch when their kid swims. There will be lots of shaded areas outside of the pool where you can also set up your chairs, and when your swimmer is swimming you can come in and cheer them on!

Concessions: They will have a concession stand open for the evening with drinks, snacks, and dinner items available. It is a cash only concession stand.

Additional Meet Reminders:

• Swimmers should wear their white Foxcroft T-shirts to the meet. Parents, don’t forget your FOXwear!
• Please remind your swimmers how important it is to stay in the team area so that our volunteers can locate them for their events. Please make sure to keep the area clean and their items in their bags. We need everyone to throw their trash away.
• Parents and swimmers should have the expectation that relay line-ups may have last minute changes.
• Fox Friends: Don’t forget your Fox Friend!
• It is against SAIL rules to consume alcohol during a swim meet.
• All communication regarding weather delays will be through the Remind group text. If your swimmer has a phone, they should be signed up too.

June 16th Meet: Sign-ups for our next home meet will open at 6 PM Wednesday night and close at 6 PM Sunday. The coaches are spending a lot of time tracking down people to sign-up. Please don’t forget! If you are unavailable to volunteer, please mark yourself as unavailable - this will be a huge help to Ashley as she finalizes our volunteer schedule each week.

Fun Friday: There will be no practice on Friday. Join us at the shelter at 10:30 AM for donuts, ribbons, and a Scavenger Hunt! The Fun Friday event will take place in teams within the highlighted neighborhood streets surrounding the pool as noted on this map. Swimmers should have shoes and clothes in addition to their swimsuits. We still have some holes in our volunteer sign up for Fun Fridays/Tuesday treats. If you can help, please sign up here.

Emails: If you would like your swimmer to receive these emails, reply back with their name and email address, and we will add it to their Swimtopia profile.
