Get ready to cheer on the Makos this Saturday! Let’s show our great Makos hospitality and sportsmanship as we host the Deerfield Dolphins at our pool for the 10 and under swimmers. Here is what you need to know..

We need all families who have a participating swimmer to volunteer during both shifts. Sign-ups are still open and we still need help in several areas! We need all hands on deck to ensure a smooth meet. Older siblings and family members can help, too! E-mail [email protected] if you need assistance and thank you so much for your willingness to serve!

**If your swimmer wakes up sick and is unable to attend the meet, please send a message to Coach Jenny Snyder in the Remind app so we can adjust our relay teams**

• It's nice to have a tent, tarp, folding chairs, coolers for food and drinks, and activities for the kids to do while waiting for events - games, markers, etc. If you don't have a tent, Mako families are willing to share

• A drop off zone is available for you in front of the recreation center to allow you to unload your gear before parking. Cars may be towed if parked in the areas marked as "No Parking"
