Good Morning Parents!

I cannot wait to cheer on our swimmers tonight in Cleveland!! Below is everything you need to know to help the evening run smoothly and safely:

Address: 1334 Church St SE, Cleveland, TN 37311

Arrival & Warmups: Please arrive by 5:15pm so your family has time to settle in before our warmups begin at 5:30pm. The meet will kick off with Cleveland's Senior Recognition at 6pm.

The Team Area will be on the rock wall side of the pool. We will swim in lanes 4, 5, and 6. Look for familiar faces and sit together!

HEAT ADVISORY - STAY COOL AND HYDRATED!!! 
It's a hot one out there this week! We're still under a heat advisory, and temperatures will remain high throughout the evening. Sitting in the heat for extended periods can be dangerous for swimmers and parents. To help stay safe and cool, we recommend bringing:

• Lots of cold water and/or Gatorade to stay hydrated
• Sunscreen - and reapply often!
• Snacks to keep energy up
• Shade items like an umbrella or tent
• Towels (multiple), cooling towels, or even a spray bottle
• Folding chairs for comfort and off-the-ground seating

There is no provided seating or shade at this location, so please come prepared!

Know the signs of heat illness: watch for dizziness, headache, nausea, fatigue, flushed skin, or confusion. If you or your swimmer feel off at any point, let a coach or volunteer know right away. Your health and safety come first - please don't hesitate to speak up if you're feeling too hot or unwell.

We're excited to see or swimmers give it their all tonight. Let's show Cleveland what the Ridgeside Dolphins are made of!

See you on deck - GO DOLPHINS!
