PRACTICE NOTES

  • Please label all of your equipment! Swimmers are in a hurry to get their towels when practice is over. They have been known to pick up the wrong equipment after practice. Labeling your gear makes it easier to find. It also makes it easier to return when someone does accidentally grab the wrong piece of equipment. If your swimmer does make it home with someone else's gear, please make sure to bring it to the next practice.
  • Our program relies on the generosity of sponsoring HOA's. Only members of that pool's HOA and their guests are permitted to swim in the pool in addition to FAST members during their assigned practice time. This includes the toddler pools.

VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES

  • Volunteering is required! We can't run the team without you. If you are signing up for the meet, you need to sign up for a volunteer position as well. During registration, we collected volunteer preferences so we are aware of your interests, but each parent will need to sign up for a volunteer job per meet. It is not automatically assigned based on the registration.
  • Please email [email protected] with any questions or to offer your volunteer services.
  • Interested in joining the FAST Frog Board? There will be some open positions this year that will need to be voted on at the banquet in July. Please email [email protected] for more information. We need you!
