Warm-up Lanes
Will be pre-assigned and can be viewed at check-in.
Two lanes will be available DURING the meet for cool downs and late warm ups.
Meet Mobile
We hope to use the Meet Mobile APP to help keep track of which event we are on and
live results. This will not have the heat sheet info though.
You can download the APP at the on-line apple store: “2024 Georgia Games Youth Meet”
Bullpen
We will be utilizing a bull pen to assist the kids which will be at the back side of the building.
Relays
No relays will be made on Saturday. We tried to get everyone into relays.
Please check carefully, most people are doing two relays.
Please Verify, because some are swimming up in age, whether you requested it or not in order to complete relays.
Please bring $5 per relay and pay at Athlete Check-in.
Tents
Awards Tent will be on the backside of the pool next to the Bull Pen.
Awards will be given out on a rolling basis with 6 separate lines.
Awards will be given out by age. Medals to 1-3 and ribbons for 4-8 places.
Please do not wait until the end of the meet!
1-3 Medalists also qualify to go to our National in San Diego, California in 2024!
Please feel free to bring your Team Tent and set them up in the grassy areas around the building but please make sure to NOT block the sidewalks.
Please pick up after yourselves. Thanks!
Food Concessions
The Cherokee Aquatic Center has an indoor concession stand in the main lobby.
Spectator Seating
Will be on the second floor with over 700 seats!
There is NO spectator seating on the pool deck.
DQ’s
This meet is a FUN meet BUT also a preparation meet for District and State, so there
will be DQ’s by the officials.
We are hoping to have the DQ explanation on the results sheets BUT COACHES can come by after the meet to the timing room to look through the DQ sheets if desired.
Parking
Please park in a designated spot or along the street.
Local Swim Lessons will be concluding at 11:50am, so be prepared for outgoing traffic too.
Water Park
The Cherokee Aquatic Center has a water park with slides that is an additional fee for those interested.
On hot days, the water park fills up but usually thins out around 3:00pm which is perfect timing for our event.
Volunteers
We always need volunteers to help operate the meet especially as timers and bull
pen supervisors.
If interested, please stop by the volunteer tent on the way in.
