  • Upon arrival you must "check in" at the Piranhas' tent.
  • Any declared swimmers not checked in by 7:15 AM will be scratched from the meet.
  • If you are running late, you may text Parent Rep Dusty (303-396-7406) by 7:15 AM to check in.
  • Piranhas will be in the pool for warm up at 7:15 AM.
  • Only those swimmers who declared (by the Wednesday deadline) are entered in the meet; therefore, the only changes to the meet program on Saturday should be scratches, substitutions or heat combinations.

  • Should you have meet questions or concerns which require assistance before or during the meet, please find/approach one of our terrific parent reps (Dusty Fitzgerald or Danielle Nairns), not the coaching staff or other meet officials.
