Blue Fin Families,

I hope you are getting excited for the next few days of fast swimming! We received the approximate timelines for Monday - those are attached. Events may be slightly faster or slower depending on any delays, so this is just a guideline. The heat sheet will be able to be purchased at the entrance gate. This is a fundraiser for the league and there will not be an emailed heat sheet. Our age group helpers will be provided heat sheets from the team. One additional reminder for swimmers - watches/timing devices must be removed prior to swimming, so please leave those at home or take them off before warm-up.

The following information is from St. Bernard:

1. Washington Ave will be closed between Vine St. and Tower Ave. To drop off your swimmer, you will need to access Washington Ave from Tower Ave.(Please reference page 9 of championship packet)
2. We prefer that spectators park in lots 1 and 2 and allow the shuttle bus to transport you to the pool.Lot 1 is a little over ½ mile from the pool. Lot 2 is about a ¼ mile from the pool.(Please reference page 9 of championship packet)
3. If you park in lot 3, please be aware that there will be many signs that indicate "business parking only" or "no parking beyond this point." We kindly ask that spectators not park in the rows in front of Skyline or Biggby and there is no parking in the Post Office parking lot. Below, please find a google image of lot 3. Spectators are welcome to park inside the areas boxed in green.
4. Lots 4 and 6 are a short walk to the team tent area. On Church St, there are a set of stairs, and a ramp, that will lead you directly down to the team tent area.(Please reference page 9 of the championship packet).Church St is also a suitable alternative for swimmer drop off. Please do not hold up traffic.
5. There is no event parking in the parking lots attached to City Hall, Fifth Third Bank, Eagles, the St. Bernard Library, Wendy’s,St. Bernard Shurfine Foods and the Dollar Tree.
6. The front gates for the St. Bernard pool will be closed (except for coaches and officials). Entrance to the team tent area and the event gate is accessible via the track to the left of the pool’s main entrance.
7. Please arrive with patience, kindness, and respect for the St. Bernard businesses and residents.

See you at the Pasta Dinner/Pep Rally tonight!
