Dam West @ Hills West
Hills West Waves
Start: 8:00 AM
Warm-up: 7:20 AM

Pool Address: 10458 E. Crestline Pl., Englewood, CO 80111

The pool is located just inside the Hills at Cherry Creek West neighborhood, off of Havana St. You may enter the neighborhood from Havana St. or Belleview Ave.

Pool Details: Hills West has an 8-lane meter pool. The deep end is 5’ and they have high blocks so remind your swimmers to dive out, not down.

Arrive by: You should aim to arrive by 6:50am in order find parking, unload and find a place to set up.

Our Warm-Up Time:

Hills West Waves: 7:00am – 7:20am

Dam West Dolphins: 7:20am - 7:40am

One-Way Starts: 7:40-7:50am – Hills West Lanes 1-4/Dam West Dolphins Lanes 5-8

Meet Starts at: 8:00 am

Team Colors: Hills West is blue and silver so there will be a lot of blue!

Parking: There is very limited space available in our small parking lot except for 2 reserved spaces, one for a Parent Rep and Head Coach. There is no parking on either side of the curved median directly in front of the pool entrance to Havana St., as this is the entrance to the neighborhood and these homes will have cars ticketed. They will put out cones as a reminder for cars not to park there. You may park along the streets throughout the Hills West neighborhood. Please do not block driveways. There also is NO parking along either side of Havana Street in front of the pool. 

Meet Check-In: You can enter the pool area either through the clubhouse or follow the sidewalk to the left which will lead you to the grassy seating area. Our Check-In person and Volunteer Coordinator will be at a picnic table set up inside the front entrance of the pool. Please be sure to find them and check in!

Visitor Seating Area:

  • Swimmers and families can set up in the park right outside of the pool fence, to the South of the starting blocks.
  • They ask that there be no deck seating and to keep the pool deck for standing spectators only. The only exception is that each team may set up a shade canopy for coaches along the side of the pool. They will have chairs set up for coaches. The team’s coaches area will be along the East side of the pool.

Volunteer Meetings: I didn’t specify in last week’s information (my bad!) but the morning Timer and S&T Judges meetings are for ALL timers and officials, both shifts. There is only the one meeting for everyone.

●Timer and Officials Meetings will be around 7:30/7:40am.

They will announce the meetings prior to the start.

Restrooms: Located in the clubhouse.

Concessions: Breakfast burritos, fruit, hot dogs and hamburgers will be available for purchase as well as water, coffee, soda, assorted beverages and a large variety of other meal items and snacks. They accept cash and are trying out Venmo this meet!

Meet Entries & Programs: Meet programs will not be for sale, they will have a copy posted at the pool. Families should print out the meet program if they would like a hard copy. They will provide meet programs to: Coaches (6 per team); Stroke & Turn Judges, Heating, Each Lane, Order of Finish, DQ Scribes, Meet Ref, Deck Ref, Starter, and Announcer.

Results: Results will be posted somewhere on the wall of the clubhouse to the right.

Theme: TBA
