Hello Gator Families,

I am sending out Westwood's meet invite.  This meet starts at 6:30pm, so please plan to arrive by 5:30pm to check in your swimmer before warm ups at 6pm.  If you have volunteered for this meet, please check in no later than 6pm (this applies to ALL volunteers).  

Jason will be sending out the meet entry files tomorrow.

Have a good evening and go Gators! :)

The Westwood Waves are looking forward to hosting your swimmers and families at Westwood on Monday, June 27th. We want to share the following information with you to prepare Avalon swimmer and families for a great meet at Westwood

Meet Info: The swim meet is scheduled to begin at 6:30pm on Monday, June 27th. Westwood is scheduled to warm up from 5:45-6, and Avalon will follow from 6:00-6:15. The competition pool is a 6 lane pool, so you will need 9 timers per shift.

Parking: Our address is 6200 West Club Lane, Richmond, VA 23226. The pool entrance faces Pollard Rd, but please don’t park on this road. Since parking spaces at Westwood are limited, we recommend that you park at Richmond Medical Park. This lot can be accessed off Bremo Road. The parking lot in the back of the building has a path that takes you to the nearest pool entrance. There will be 5 parking spaces reserved near the pool entrance for your swim coaches and swim representatives.

Guest Team Seating: Visiting team seating is located to the left of the pool, as viewed from the pool entrance. There are a limited number of chairs and tables, so your families will want to bring extra chairs and towels/blankets for seating.

Food: Our dining room provides a cookout for the swimmers and families during the meet. They set up behind the announcer’s stand. The snack bar will also be open with a limited menu. Only cash is accepted. Westwood will provide meal vouchers for coaches’ dinners.

Inclement Weather: In the case of inclement weather, we ask that swimmers and parents clear the pool. Guests are asked to wait in their cars until a determination can be made. We will follow the JRAC rule book in the event of inclement weather. *inclement weather agreement and relays

Please and Thank You: Please ask your swimmers to avoid the tennis courts and the playground. The pool is closed throughout the duration of the swim meet, and ALL swimmers should stay out of the shallow end and the diving well throughout the meet.

Dunk Hunger: We invite you to participate in a more important battle, the battle to end hunger. Let’s engage in a friendly competition to “Dunk Hunger.” Please encourage your swimmers to bring in boxes of food or canned food to benefit Feed More. The team that brings in the most canned food is the real winner!

We look forward to a great swim meet. Please email us if you have questions or concerns.

Good luck,
Dana Kuhlen & Jessica Van Tuyle Westwood Swim Reps.
