Waves Parent Volunteers

The Waves program has been successful for over 25 years due to the hard work of dedicated parent volunteers. The Waves program has several areas that need volunteer leadership to achieve a successful season. The critical volunteer area happens during swim meets, to run a meet we will need 30-60 volunteers. The coaches focus on the swimmers, and we need parents in leadership roles to coordinate the swim meet.

Volunteer Leadership Roles Needed: 

• Meet Director
• Banquet/Social Activity Coordinator
• Meet Volunteer Coordinator
• Concession Coordinator Waves Volunteers
• Lane Judge
• Timer
• Concession
• Team Photographer
• "Rubber Duck" Coordinator
• Team Gear

Volunteer Sign-Up

The season is scheduled to start on January 3. The Waves program will coordinate volunteer sign up online. The website will be updated with a volunteer sign-up web link address for parents. Each week during the season we will send out an email reminder to parents to get on the volunteer site and sign up for swim meets. This site will go live the first week of the season.
