HOWJ: Returning Families - Registration Opens Tomorrow

Hello Returning Water Jets families!


This is a reminder that the 2023 Water Jets Registration form will open at NOON tomorrow (Wed. 3/22) for RETURNING FAMILIES.

In the meantime, please read below for additional reminders about the season / registration process. 

Please remember NOT to share the regisration email or link with others who are new to the team. NEW families will be able to register beginning FRIDAY (3/24) by visiting the Swimtopia website.

VOLUNTEER INFO:

When you register, you will be required to select your volunteer roles - totaling 4 "points". Please note that some volunteer jobs are reserved for families who ONLY have Shrimpers. Please leave those jobs for those families.  Remember if you are a team sponsor or Friend of the Water Jet, you are only required to do 3 points. 

NEW THIS YEAR: If you bail on your volunteer slot and you do not find a replacement, you will NOT be listed as a returning family next season. Please help us with this. It takes 50+ volunteers to run these meets.
FEES:

When you register, you will notice a $3.30 fee per swimmer. This is a fixed fee charged by Swimtopia that goes directly to Swimtopia. It's their fee for us to use their website to manage the team and the meets. 

SUITS: Carolina Swim Shop is open now - but they will hold a special opening for just HO swimmers on Thursday, April 6th from 6-8pm. You can also request to join the Hunter Oaks Swimsuit Swap page on Facebook and look for a handed-down suit there.

COMMUNICATION: Be sure to add in any spouses/caretakers etc that you want to receive the emails. This will be our main way of communicating to the parents. You will be logging in to Swimtopia frequently - so make sure your account info is up to date.

PARENT MEETING: If you missed the parent Zoom meeting last week, we did record it and you can watch it here.


Also - attached is the slide deck from the meeting. 
One thing we wanted to mention... Molly & Lisa have been Co-Presidents of the Water Jets for the last 3 seasons. We'd like to step down at some point... it would be ideal to train someone(s) during the season. If you are interested in getting involved please let us know! 

We are so excited to begin another great swim season!
