Good morning Barracudas!

For those attending Sunday's Gold Meet at Hillsmere, please know that we are continuing to monitor the meet conditions and air quality, and will share any guidance or decisions made by GASL about the meet.

Sensitive groups (including those with asthma, heart/lung disease, and older adults) should consider staying indoors. Please use your best judgement when bringing extra spectators, including very young children, elderly relatives, or any individuals sensitive to the poor air quality conditions to spectate at the meets.

For now, the meet is expected to proceed as scheduled and GASL is allowing Teams to make scratches to their line-ups until 3pm Saturday. If you want to scratch an event or the whole meet, you must let us know by 12:00pm tomorrow. If your swimmer(s) are in a relay, it is critical that you notify us of any scratches. Once the meet is locked again, any scratch of a relay swimmer will scratch the entire relay.

Please see the Heat and Psych Sheets attached, along with the Athlete Check-in report which lists events by name. Please note what you are swimming.
