Volunteers Needed

Help required for COGST Graded Meet February 2008

As usual the club is looking for helpers to assist with the running of our meet in February. There are a large number of jobs which need to be done to help the meet to run smoothly and we need your assistance.

None of these jobs need any specific skills or knowledge of swimming and can be easily learned.

Examples of the type of help we need are:

· Selling programmes

· Taking entrance money

· Selling tombola and raffle tickets

· Supervising changing areas and swim down pool

· Copying and stapling results and distributing them

· Marshalling the swimmers at a number of points around the pool

· Preparing medals for presentation

· And many more..

There are other more specialised roles e.g. meet management, timekeeping etc. which need some more skills, but if you are interested in these then we would be happy to hear from you.

We have assigned a specific committee member who will arrange a meeting of all volunteers before the meet to outline what is required and answer any questions. They will draw up a rota for the meet and will be available on the day to make sure that everybody knows what they need to do.

This year we have increased the meet from a single day to try and ensure that as many of our own swimmers as possible are accepted, so it is even more important that we have enough helpers to cover the two days.

If you wish to volunteer please contact: Elaine Clark This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it or any committee member.

N.B All members who are entered for this meet will be expected to provide a helper for at least one session. Any swimmer who does not provide a helper may be withdrawn from the meet.
