The Hurricanes are excited to welcome the Gators to Hartland for our upcoming meet on Wednesday evening, July 1st. Below you’ll find all the details you’ll need for a smooth evening at their pool.

Meet Location: Hartland Pool, 41245 Hartland House Lane, Aldie, VA, 20105

Gators Theme: Red, White, and Blue - It's almost the 4th of July - let's get festive!

Parking: Parking is available in the lot near the pool, but it fills quickly. When parking in the neighborhood, please be mindful of fire hydrants and do not block any driveways or mailboxes. Anywhere with gravel is fair to park on.

Please allow time to find parking and to walk to the pool area. The Hurricanes appreciate our helping them to be good neighbors!

Schedule:

• Pool deck opens to all teams: 5:00 PM
• Greenway Gators warm-ups: 5:30 PM
• Officials meeting: 5:30 PM (near the referee table/baby pool)
• Meet starts: 6:00 PM

Volunteers: Please check the volunteer sign up and fill in any missing spots - thank you for your help! https://greenwaygators.swimtopia.com/swim_meets

Team Area: The Gators team area will be on the pool deck.

Spectators: Remain on the side of the pool near the splash pad. Although there is tiered seating behind the shallow end of the pool, it gets very crowded during 25m swims if parents are behind the timers. There should only be swimmers in that area.

Facility Notes: The wading/baby pool and playground are off-limits during the meet. We appreciate your help in keeping swimmers and siblings out of these areas.

Concessions: Concessions will be available with drinks, snacks, and light dinner options. Cash and Zelle (via QR code) are accepted.

Look out for the Kona Ice Truck parked out front!

Food was available for pre-order (due by noon Tuesday) with very limited extras on the day of the meet. If you pre-ordered food, you can pick it up at the concessions stand.

Heat Sheets: If you've purchased the SwimTopia app, you will receive a notification once the meet program has been released. A copy of the Heat Sheet is also attached to this message.

Spectator Area: The visiting team will use the snack area (to the far right as you enter the pool deck from the locker rooms) with their guests using the space at that end of the pool. Please also share the space along the back fence (long lounge chairs). Gators spectators will use the space along the pool house side of the pool and the half of the lounge chair area closest to the awning. Please be sure to leave space for swimmers to move from one end of the space to the other so they can set up for their events.

Supervision: Coaches are responsible for the conduct of their swimmers and families and for cleaning up their team areas. Please remind swimmers to stay with their team during the meet and to clean up afterward.

Concessions: Cash-only concessions will be available. We will have Anita’s Breakfast Burritos and assorted snacks, pastries, and drinks.

Weather: If weather impacts the swim meet, a text alert will be sent using SwimTopia. There is a 30-minute wait period after a thunder/lightning strike. The pool deck must be cleared during that time. Team Reps and Head Coaches will address any weather delays accordingly.

Heat Sheets: Will be published to the Documents and Links page once available. Copies will also be displayed in the team area at the meet. You can also follow the meet using the SwimTopia app. There is a 7-day free trial and a $5.99/month charge thereafter.

We are looking forward to a fun meet! See you at the pool!

The team area is located in the circular parking lot immediately north of the pool. This area will be blocked from vehicle traffic.

The home team sets up on the west side of the parking lot and the visiting team sets up on the east side. The Gators are welcome to use the paved or grassy area. Willowsford North asks that swimmers stay in the team area and stay away from the amphitheater and playground during the meet.

The clerk tent will be set up on the south end adjacent to the pool.

Several large trash bins will be placed around the team areas so that we can keep the area clean.

Swimmer Drop-off

Swimmers can be dropped off using the circle immediately north of the team areas, or they can be dropped off near the pool entrance and use the sidewalk to access the team areas.

Parking

Parents are welcome to park in any space in the lot, or on the street along Founders drive.

Volunteers

Greenway Farms still needs several second-half volunteers for tonight's meet. As a reminder, each family is required to volunteer at least 3 times during the season. With 74 Greenway swimmers participating this evening, we need all volunteer positions filled to ensure the meet runs smoothly and starts on time.

If you will be attending the meet—especially if you have not yet fulfilled your volunteer requirement—please sign up as soon as possible.

Thank you for helping make our meets successful for all of our swimmers.

On Deck Seating

When setting up folding chairs, please keep back from the edge of the pool so that spectators can easily move in and out to view their swimmers’ heats. Also, please be mindful of walkways and foot traffic, especially around the corners of the pool.

The baby pool and shallow end of the big pool will be blocked off, but please ask parents to make sure that little ones stay out of the water. Unfortunately, that includes feet, toes, etc.

Concessions

Warm food, donuts, snacks, candy, and drinks will be available for purchase from our concession stand.

Willowsford North accepts cash and Venmo for payment, with a $5 minimum purchase for Venmo.
