Conference Week


We’re finally here!  For many of our athletes, this will be their final week of swimming for the 2010-11 season…  Here’s what you need to know:

  • Tuesday and Wednesday
    • Practice will get out at 5pm for Conference Swimmers. 
    • State Swimmers will practice until 5:30
  • Thursday
    • After a short practice, the Conference Swimmers will shave down in the locker room.  Each swimmer will need to bring a couple razors.  Shaving cream will be provided.
    • Following the shave-down, we will head to the Goril’s house for our Conference Team Dinner.  Rides will be provided by our upperclassmen.
    • The swimmers will need to be picked up from the Goril’s house afterwards.  Their address is 20395 M-43.
  • Friday
    • For the classes they will miss on Friday, each swimmer is to get their assignments BEFOREHAND and turn them in at the same time as the rest of their classes.  This does not count the same as a regular absence.
    • All swimmers will get out of class to eat A Lunch.
    • We will leave the high school by 12:15.
    • Warm Up begins at 1:30, Prelims begin at 3:00.  Divers may stay for an hour afterwards (this is up to Justin).
    • EVERYONE will ride the bus home.  We will stop somewhere in Allegan to grab some food, so swimmers need to bring money.
  • Saturday
    • WE NEED TO PROVIDE PARENT TRANSPORTATION ON SATURDAY.  CALL (269-313-6234) or EMAIL (benjamin.herrman@gmail.com) me if you can provide transportation so I can get an accurate head count.
    • Those who placed in the Top 16 in each event will swim on Saturday.  EVERYONE attends, whether they made the top-16 cut or not.
    • Divers need to be at Allegan by 8:00 for Warm Up, with prelims beginning at 9:30.
    • Swimmers need to meet at the high school at 8:45.  We will leave by 9:00 so that we can catch part of the diving prelims.
    • Warm Up begins at 10:45, Finals begin at 12:00 (noon). 
  • Miscellaneous
    • Swimmers will need to bring food and drink for each session.
    • Admission is $5.00 at the door each day.
    • Conference shirts will be available on-site for $15.
If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to call or email me!
