Hello CCM families! Thank goodness this weather is happening today and not tomorrow! A few updates and important information to read. Also we will be placing tarps down under our tent tomorrow to hopefully minimize mud. Be prepared as other areas of the venue may be very muddy.

T-shirts - We are still waiting on an update as to when the shirts can be picked up. We hope to have them at the clubhouse at some point during the ice cream social. We will send a separate email and update the FB parents forum as to when/how to get the shirts. So be on the lookout! 

Decoration set up - Because of our wonderful weather tonight, we won't really be able to decorate the tent at Scottish Hills tonight. The current plan is to arrive around 6am and lay out tarps to help keep the tent area from getting really muddy, then begin to decorate. So if you are arriving for the morning session we may still be out there finishing up. Also if anyone wants to come help in the am you can text Liz at 919-609-1692. 

Sign up - Thank you to all those that plan to help bring some food/drink to share tomorrow. It is so helpful! There are still some open slots for food. A list minute add to the list is bringing bags of ice to put in the coolers. I believe we are still looking for someone (possibly from the PM session) who can transport the tables and coolers back to the pool after the meet.  https://www.signupgenius.com/go/9040C4FADA729A20-50255339-cary

Heat Sheets - I've attached an Oxxford Hunt only version of the heat sheets along with the AM and PM sheets. They are also available on Swimtopia. 

Below is more information sent along by Scottish Hills - Please read!

Arrival and Parking

Please enter the Scottish Hills neighborhood on Tarbert Drive from Cary Parkway. The road in front of the pool will be one way. Stop at the Drop off zone in front of the field (marked with cones) and drop off your swimmers and gear and then park in the neighborhood. Please be respectful of our neighbors and do not park in front of their driveways or walk on their lawns. Cones will be placed throughout the neighborhood to mark off "No Parking" zones.

Spots in Annie Jones Park and the Scottish Hills parking lot are all reserved for vendors, head volunteers, and coaches.

You can enter "Tent City" in the field near the drop-off zone. Entrance areas will be marked.

Concessions

Concessions will be sold under the main shelter in the pool area. BOLT coffee will be on site selling coffee and energy drinks for the morning. We will also have Chick-fil-A chicken biscuits and sausage biscuits, donuts, muffins, snacks, candy, fruit and drinks for sale at the concession area. Jersey Mikes will be available for lunch at the concession area and Salvio's Pizza will be selling food for lunch on the tennis courts. Cash and card will be accepted.

There is a designated cafe area on the tennis courts with shade and tables so that you can enjoy your food! Sunset Slush will be located on the tennis courts.

Results and Awards

Results will be posted on the backboard in the tennis courts periodically. The Trophy Awards Ceremony will take place at the completion of the PM Session recognizing our top finishers and spirit award. Ribbons and medals will be sent to each team and will be distributed to families as they would after a dual swim meet.
