**IMPORTANT CHAMPS INFO**

Champs is going to look different this year! It will be a split event:

  • Swimmers age 11 and up, race during the morning session
  • Swimmers age 10 and under, race during the afternoon session.
  • Every family MUST participate as a volunteer. It is the only way to make Champs successful!

Parents are required to sign up for a volunteer shift during your child’s swim session. If you have children swimming in both the morning and afternoon, you need to sign up for a volunteer shift during both morning and afternoon sessions.
