POOL SHARKS NEEDS YOUR HELP...

     * If you are interested in joining the Pool Sharks board,
      please contact any board member listed in the contact page.


PARENTS PLEASE NOTE: 

    * IT TAKES 250 MAN HOURS TO RUN A MEET...In order to run a successful home
      meet,  all participating swimmer families need to volunteer an average of 12
      hours throughout the swim season.  Please remember this is a volunteer
      organization and without your cooperation other families will ultimately have
      to cover for your non-participation. Sign-up sheets are posted at the out-door
      pool.  Training will be provided!


    * Swimmers and parents are asked to assist in cleaning up their areas prior to
      departure from home and away meets. 


    * Parents please remember that you are responsible for your children's
      behavior at all meets (CODE OF CONDUCT).  Please periodically monitor and
      find out what your child/children are doing when they are not swimming -
