Greetings Turtles - 

Please review this email closely for information about practices and meets, including this weekend's GIRLS home meet against Oaklands, and other procedures. 

• Practices are held Monday through Friday mornings unless there is severe weather and we will then send out an alert notifying Turtles of any cancellations or changes to practice. The practice schedule is:
  • 8-9am - ages 13 and up
  • 9-10am 9-12 year-olds

• Before each meet your swimmer will participate in (Girls for girls meets, boys for boys meets) PLEASE declare your swimmer using the SwimTopia RSVPs tab. For the Oaklands meet, please try to do this by Thursday at noon - the sign-up can be found here - https://fairfield.swimtopia.com/manage/generic_eve...
  • There is a way to RSVP in the Game Changer app, but given we may not use this app beyond this year we prefer to have you declare using SwimTopia.
• Before each meet your swimmer is participating in, you will need to complete a health check for your swimmer no sooner than 3 hours before the start of the meet.
  • If you have used Dick's Game Changer app before you should see a Fairfield Turtles Summer 2021 box in the app.
  • If you have not used it before, you likely received an email inviting you to use it.
  • You only need to complete the health screening for your swimmer(s) - not you.
• Food sign-ups and Job sign-ups for parent volunteers can also be found in SwimTopia. We greatly appreciate your support and help with both volunteering and food. Food sales are a great fundraiser for the team and a nice perk for meet attendees!
• A few other notes:
  • Spectators do not need to do health checks
  • Boy swimmers and their parents/families can come to Girl meets and vice versa
  • Spectators do not need to declare to attend a meet

As always, please don't hesitate to reach out with any questions.
