Team Picture Information:
Before our final meet each year, our Dolphins gather on the front steps of DHGC with their coaches to take a team picture! Please have your swimmer dressed in uniform for this picture. This includes their competition suit and season T-shirt! The picture will be taken at 4pm. Please make sure your swimmer is checked in with their bullpen by 3:45pm so we have an opportunity to arrange everyone before we say "Cheese!" It is super important to be there for the team picture! Everyone will receive a printed copy of the picture at our celebratory banquet in August! 

Senior Night Information:
The Dolphins have been incredibly lucky to have an awesome collection of senior swimmers this season! A much loved tradition occurs at the end of the final swim meet, where our seniors take their final dive off of the diving board as a Dolphin! Parents of the seniors have prepared a short biographical speech to be read by our announcer, Doug Rollins, as they take their final dive. At the end of the pool, their parent will be waiting with their senior gift, a monogrammed towel, to celebrate the years they have spent as a Dolphin. ALL DOLPHINS ARE INVITED to stay and celebrate with complimentary Athens Pizza after the final dives take place! 

Volunteers Needed: 
Thank you to all of the incredible parents who have volunteered over the course of this season! Without our parent volunteers, we could not time our swimmers, line them up behind the blocks, or hand out ribbons.
For our final meet we need, (in order of priority):
Lead Bullpen Parents for 10U boys, 10U girls, and 12U girls
First Shift Bullpen Volunteers for 8U Boys and 10U girls
Second Shift Bullpen Volunteers for 8U Boys 
This is a perfect opportunity to earn your volunteer points if you are still missing some! 

Championship, Celebration, and Practice Reminders: 

• Please e-mail Robyn your availability to attend Championship by 10am Monday Morning! Live Stream waivers will be stationed at Volunteer Check In for those parents who still need to sign them!
• Championship team will be announced at the end of the meet via e-mail! 
• There will be no practice Tuesday Morning following the meet. Awards Night, GREEN NIGHT, will be held during the evening practice at 6pm. Show up in your green Dolphin best and celebrate with your team!
