The Reserve Stingrays would like welcome The Silverton Sharks to our neighborhood for our swim meet that is scheduled on Tuesday, July 19. We are looking forward to hosting your team and having a great time!

Some information we would like to share about our neighborhood pool. Please pass this information along to your coaches, volunteers and swim families.

Location:

The Reserve is located at 101 Edgemore Ave., Cary 27519. Our subdivision is located just north of the intersection of NC Hwy 55 and High House Rd. The pool is on the left once you enter the subdivision from Hwy 55.

Parking:

We have limited parking spaces, so we encourage car pooling. Once the parking lot is full you may park along the street. Please park on the sidewalk side of the street. There will be "no parking" signs indicating where not to park. Please do not park within 50 feet of any stop sign.

Swimmers:

We have approximately 73 swimmers this year. Generally we have 50-60 swimming in each meet.

Timing and Meet Meastro:

We use the Dolphin Timing System and a backup stopwatch in each lane. The Dolphin times feed directly to Meet Maestro but we override the place finishes with the Place Judge finishes per TSA regulations. The system we have been using for the process is: the home team takes the DQ’s, Place Judge results, and backup times and enters any corrections need from the auto input from the Dolphins into Meet Maestro. The visiting team then checks that they agreed with all data entry. Ribbons may not be ready until Thursday depending on the home teams ability to print them during the meet.

Pool Set Up:

We have a six lane pool and a small pool deck. The seating for all 7 & older swimmers (from both teams) will be outside the pool gate area. Please have your swimmers come prepared with chairs, blankets, bug spray, etc. to keep them comfortable during the meet. All 6 & unders are welcome to be on the deck with their kid pushers or parents. There will be seating for your team parents on deck near the same area (3 ft. End of pool), but seating will be limited due to our deck size.

Meet Schedule Info:

We will be swimming the 6 & U age group in normal sequence and rotation with the other age groups. In order to expedite the meet we allow "dive-overs" to keep the meet running smoothly

Warm Ups:

-Home team warm-ups begin at 5:00PM

-Visiting team warm-ups begin at 5:30PM

-The meet will begin promptly at 6:00PM

We recommend you arrive at 5:00 to get your team and volunteers situated. You are more than welcome to arrive earlier if you wish. We will have a table set up for your volunteer coordinator and chairs for your coaches on the clubhouse side of the pool.

Coaches/Parents Relay:

When agreed by both teams, we are open to having a Coach/Parent relay if time allows. These usually take place after the breast stroke, weather permitting.

Officials Meeting:

TSA and Officials meeting (starter, stroke and turn, place judges, runners, timers and clerks) will be held at 5:45 PM at the starting block end of the pool near the announcer's table. After the general meeting, place judges, timers, stroke and turn judges will break away for specific instructions.

Concessions:

We will provide a full concession stand at the meet including meals such as Chicken Strip or sandwich meals, pizza, hot dogs, chips, candy, soda, water, Gatorade, Frozen yogurt, etc.

Please feel free to contact me with any questions. We look forward to welcoming you to our pool and to a great meet!
