COVID Regulations:
- If your child is sick in ANY way, please have him/ her stay home.
- All swimmers, parents and coaches must adhere to mask mandates in accordance with Larimer County Ordinances.
- When swimmers enter the pool area, once they have been checked in, there will be a specific area for them to place their bags, as bags will be separated out as well.
- Swimmers are to leave the pool area as soon as practice is over. There is break to allow entering and exit space. Swimmers need to remain outside the gate spaced from each other until they are allowed in the pool area.
- We are going to follow the Larimer county rules regarding how many swimmers and spectators are allowed at a time.
- The team has to supply to the county complete rosters, schedules, location of meets/practices and contact information (to include names, phone numbers and email addresses) of all team members or parents of youth who participate prior to the teams playing in any league events, including practice. Failure of parents, facilities, coaches and/or team organizers to cooperate with contact tracing may result in the league or season being suspended or canceled.
Meets:
Swim meets will be scheduled in May with other teams. We hope to schedule a few meets for June and July. All will be dependent on HOA and County allowance.
We are not sure of the plans for the City Meet as of April 19, 2020 and State for those who qualify is July 23-24th; each of those meets has additional fees attached. More information will follow as the dates get closer.
