💡 Tips and other helpful info
- Get there when doors open - Champs is PACKED!
- When you arrive, kids should go right on deck and find our bleachers. Our flag will be above our bleachers, but you can also check out the map that’s attached.
- Parents aren’t allowed on deck, so tell your kid where and when to meet you after their last race (for example, “Meet me in the lobby after your last race.”)
- Be sure to write your kids’ races on their hand - event-heat-lane (and what they’re swimming - I know my kids like that!). See the attached sheet to make that easier.

If you ordered a Champs shirt, it will be in your child’s goody bag! Be sure to ask them if they have it before you leave SwimRVA after their session!
✅ What You Need to Bring:
- Cap, goggles, and towel.
- Snacks for in-between races - it’s a long day!
- Water, Gatorade, etc.
- A bleacher seat for yourself.
- Ear plugs if noise is overwhelming!
