Parking:
We encourage car-pooling. If you are unable to find a space in our lot, street parking is allowed with two exceptions: Do NOT park along Lochmere Drive and Cars parked along the side streets and cul-de-sacs must remain back 20 feet from the stop signs. Be warned that Cary Police will be monitoring these streets and might ticket or tow if you are parked illegally.
Seating:
The Pool deck opens at 4:45pm to swim team families. The visiting team can set up on the immediate left side of the pool as you enter the deck area (bring your own chairs).
Pool Rules:
we do not allow balls of any kind or water guns on our deck during the swim meet. Swimmers should also keep to the pool your meet is at and stay out of other pools.
No Alcoholic drinks:
TSA Rules state: Drinking of alcoholic beverages will not be allowed during the meet by spectators, parents, participants, coaches and all meet volunteers. We always run the risk of forfeiting the meet if we are not in compliance with TSA rules so we appreciate your cooperation with this rule.
TSA Rep:
Ifyou have any concerns or issues that arise with the other team during our meet, please find the SVKW TSA Rep. One of their many jobs is to act as a liaison between the two teams when there are problems and concerns. Please refrain from bringing up issues directly with the opposing team coaches, parents, and swimmers.
