Tomorrow morning will be our final practice and our final meet is tomorrow night at Hardage Farms. Reminder that your swimmer should be in the pool for warms up at 5:30pm. Please see the email below from a couple of days ago about parking and concessions.
If you didn't pick up your certificate yet, we will have them at practice and the meet tomorrow. On Friday, we will be doing the ribbons from the meet. You are welcome to stop by at 9am to pick them up if you would like to. Otherwise, we can arrange a pick up.
On a personal note, we would like to thank you all for a fantastic season! We are so blessed by your generosity with the gift from the awards last night. Thank you all!
Go Cyclones!

We have heard from Hardage Farms. Please make sure to read all the details concerning parking, bringing chairs, concessions, etc. Your swimmer needs to be in the pool for warm ups at 5:30pm.
Here are the details from their team:
Thepooladdress is 671 Hardage Farm Drive, Marietta, GA 30064. The parking lot at the clubhouse/pool is small and mostly reserved spots. Parking is available on the street before and after the pool. Signs will be up, but FYI, cars need to park on the
same side of the street as the pool in the direction of the entrance to the neighborhood (think getaway car! fast exit!). While some cars will need to park in front of homes, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE park on the road, close to, but not ON the grass. We all want happy neighbors. :) Thanks in advance.
The visitors side is the left side deck of the pool (on the left as you enter the pool gate). We will not have any tables or chairs for spectators on either side, so please plan accordingly. In addition, there is limited green space outside the pool and tennis courts where families can set up their home base. On deck will be tables reserved for each team's coordinator/coaches.
I'd like to reiterate that our pool deck and even the green space outside our pool is limited. I know some teams like to travel with a plethora of tents and chairs and tables, however please know that there is NOT ample space to do this. I just want to manage expectations as your families prepare. In addition, if you will ask your team to not set up before 4:15 we would appreciate it. Again, small deck, small team, small set of parents to volunteer for all the things--helping us by keeping the deck and areas clear of people will help us to be most efficient so we can all enjoy the evening!
Concessions will be available serving BBQ, hot dogs, pizza, nachos, along with the usual snacks and candy. They accept cash and cards.
Just outside the pool is a playground--we ask our families not to let their swimmer's play until after all of their events are complete (to prevent having to pry a kiddo off the swing in time for their event!). In addition, please ask your families to keep kids out of the shallow end of the pool during the meet.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
See you all at practice and awards tomorrow.
