Notes:
Note 1: Volunteering at a CVST swim meet is a great way to let your
kids see how much you are supporting their swim team. The kids are always
excited about the meets, and it really does take the dedication of all CVST
parents to make each meet a success.
Note 2: Since CVST is a non-profit, charitable organization, high
school kids can get service hours for volunteering. Have them check with their
school for the paperwork, and the meet directors will happily sign off to
validate their hours. (Last year we had several members of the Sickles High
School National Honor Society, and they were great!)
Note 3:
The meet
directors this year are Jill Cappadoro and Nancy Westbrook. Please feel free to
ask us any questions you might have. Meet committee chairs will be assigned
soon, and sign up sheets for volunteers will be posted in March –

Note 4:
Family Commitments & Fund Raising:
Fund Raising is an essential part of our program. CVST holds a
number of small fund-raisers each year, as well as the Boys & Girls Club
National Championships and the Annual Tampa Bay Swim Classic (the team's major
fund raising events of the year). Full parent and family participation is
required at all these fund raising events.
With both the Boys & Girls Club Nationals and the Classic,
parents are required to work a minimum of 3 out of the 5 sessions at each meet.
A $100.00 service fee will be assessed per session for families that do not meet
this service commitment at each of these meets.
