If you park on a street with homes, please park on only one side of the road and avoid blocking driveways.
Swimmer Area
Our swimmer area will be located in front of the Shark Shack and in the field between the pool and tennis courts.
Restricted Areas
Please stay off the tennis courts.
There is also a large piece of machinery located in the swimmer area. Children must not climb on or play around this equipment. All restricted areas will be clearly marked and blocked off for safety.

Special Guests
Kevin and Christine Fee will be special guests at our home meet on Thursday, and we'd love for our Shark families to help us thank them for their years of generosity to our team.
In addition to their ongoing financial support, this year's team chairs and towels were generously provided by the Fee family. Their contributions help make our season even more special.
If you see Kevin or Christine at the meet, please take a moment to introduce yourself and let them know how much their support means to our team. We are incredibly grateful for sponsors like the Fees who invest in our swimmers and our program.
Concessions
We'll have food trucks from One-Eyed Donkey and Berry Hill in the parking lot. The Shark Shack will also be open and serving pizza, hot dogs, snacks, and drinks.
Spectators
Spectators are welcome on deck. A designated spectator area will be available near the deep-end side of the pool. Space is limited, so please be considerate of others.
Severe Weather Plan
In the event of severe weather, we will follow SAIL's weather policy. If the pool deck must be cleared, everyone will be asked to return to their vehicles until it is safe to resume the meet.
PLEASE DO NOT LEAVE, especially if your swimmer is scheduled to swim in a relay.
Be sure you have the SwimTopia app installed and notifications enabled so you'll receive updates and alerts when it is time to return to the pool deck. Use the email address and password you created during registration to log in.
Scratches
If something comes up and your swimmer will miss the meet, please text Debby DeRosa at 864-423-2043. Meet days are very busy, so emails to coaches or board members may be missed.
That's all for now! Get ready to swim fast and make some waves this week.
Fear the Fin,
The PCHM Swim Team Board
