Virginia Swimming Needs More Officials
We have many meets in our LSC each year and it takes a big volunteer effort to make them happen.  We're constantly recruiting new parents to help fill the ranks as our parents of graduating swimmers finish up their officiating careers.  If you're interested in becoming a swim official, we have lots of clinics coming up across the LSC.
For all the information and POC's, check out the Officials page.

Virginia Swimming Zone Team Assistant Manager
We need an Assistant Team Manager willing to be trained to become the Team Manager in a year or two.
If interested, please contact Caycee Buscaglia.

Coach Background Screening Renewal
Many of you will need to renew your background screen this year.  Here's an important memo from USA Swimming that explains the renewal process.

Coach Certification Requirements Reminder
There are some changes that went into effect on 1 September.  Here's a reminder.  If you renew for 2009, and don't renew your background before then, your card will probably expire 12/31/2008.  Most of you did your background check in December.  It is not to early to renew.
