*Every active parent in the system received this email regardless if you RSVP'ed Yes or No for the meet*

Monday's meet is AWAY at Lake Chesterfield.  (For Penguin swimmers only, NOT Puffins)

WARMUPS FOR MAC:  

- Ages 9-12 warmup from 5:00-5:15

-Ages 8 and under and 13 and over warmup from 5:15-5:30

MEET STARTS PROMPTLY AT 5:30

Please plan for traffic.  If you choose to take Clarkson Road, heading south at this time is very conjested.  Please plan extra time.  You also want your swimmers there a little early to 'set up' shop in the bullpen area and give them time to get the first time gitters under control!

It will be VERY hot and SUNNY in our Bullpen area.  Please consider bringing umbrellas, tents, etc for provide shade for your kids.  Please DO NOT leave until you speak to a coach.  We will have relays at every meet from now on.  It is very important to check to make sure your swimmer isn't in a relay before leaving.

Please bring: two towels, bug spray, water, sunscreen, swim cap, two pairs of goggles, something for your swimmers to play with while sitting in the bullpen, chairs for spectators, cash (concessions only take cash), a positive attitude, and big smiles.

We hope to have the Heat Sheet posted on the website by 2:00.  It will be on the homepage, on the left, under the "Links" area.

BELOW IS THE POOL INFORMATION PROVIDED BY LAKE CHESTERFIELD:

We are excited to host MAC this Monday. Thank you for making the drive out to our pool, and we hope we extend enough hospitality to make up for it!

Our Pool is located at: 150 Waterside Drive, Wildwood, MO 63040.

PARKING:

There are several places your parents can park. There is a daycare center neighboring the pool, Apple Hill Academy, along Pierside (you can see the pool from the parking lot). This entire parking lot is available for the visiting team. Visitors are allowed to park on both sides of Waterside Drive (the street directly in front of the pool entrance), and the city of Wildwood has given us permission to park on the South side (the side closest to our pool) of Pierside during our meet (the portion East of Waterside--just past the stop sign at Waterside/Pierside); it is recommended that visitors avoid parking on the North side of Pierside (before the stop sign at Waterside). Parking is NOT allowed on Centerpoint Drive which is a side street off of Waterside; this road is too narrow for emergency vehicles to pass. Cars parked along Centerpoint will be TICKETED and possibly TOWED. There is also a closed Kinder Care at 16375 Pierside Lane which is available for your parents to park. 

BULLPEN:

Your bullpen will be in our adult-pool area; it’s just to the right as you walk into the main gate to the pool area. Please feel free to use any tables, chairs and umbrellas for your swimmers or for check-in headquarters for volunteers. This section is raised and overlooks the main pool, but spectators can also set up chairs along both sides of the pool. We are trying something new and allowing visiting swimmers to use the gate closest to the life-guard stand for lane loading; this route has minimal congestion and is logically more safe. I can show you this route upon arrival.

CONCESSIONS:

We do have full concessions available. Lake Chesterfield’s famous pulled/smoked pork, hamburgers, hotdogs, salads, carrot & celery cups, fruit & cheese cups, baked potatoes, nachos (with or without pulled pork), candy, water, Gatorade and sodas.

Coolers and alcohol ARE allowed at the pool, but NO glass containers of any kind are permitted.

We look forward to seeing you and all of your families on Monday night!  Thanks
