Dam West @ Canterberry
3869 South Atchison Way, Aurora, CO 80014
Start: 8:00 AM
End: 1:30 PM
(estimated)
Pool Address: 3869 S. Atchison Way, Aurora, CO 80014 (If you are familiar with Pier Point or the MACS swimming team, this is their pool.) Pool Details: They have a 6 lane, METER pool which means it will be longer than our pool. The deep end is 11’ or 12’. It is a unique pool in that it is an outdoor pool but covered with a white bubble structure. The sides roll up so that the top is covered but you can access the pool from the sides. Entrance: Enter the pool area by the open side gate located near the main MACs entrance. Arrive by: You should aim to arrive by 7:00am in order find parking, unload and find a place to set up. Our Warm-Up Time: 7:25 – 7:50 Meet Starts at: 8:00am Team Colors: The Canterberry Crocs team color is GREEN so please try not to wear green. Wearing BLUE helps us know that you are with the Dolphins. Parking: The parking lot is TINY and mostly reserved. Street parking is available. Please use only the main streets as cars parked on residential side streets are subject to towing. Please be sure to park the proper distance from stop signs, fire hydrants, etc. I suggest checking the google map before arriving. You will see that the pool is located somewhat behind the Casa Vallarta on Parker Rd. I’m not sure that you’ll need it but if you need to park in the back of that retail area there are walking paths from S. Atchinson Way that will lead you to the pool. Visitor Seating Area: Families can set up in the grassy areas and tennis court next to the pool. It looks like it should actually be warm and sunny tomorrow so be sure to bring your own shade (tents, umbrellas, etc) and chairs. The area we will be sitting in has zero shade. Coach Area: We will have assigned tables/chairs on the pool deck for coaches. Volunteer Meetings: Meetings for S&T and Timers will take place at 7:45 a.m.
Restrooms: Located on the lower level of the clubhouse. Concessions: Canterberry Crocs will have a variety of breakfast and other food items available for purchase throughout the meet. They only take CASH. Meet Entries & Programs: Programs are not for sale (we’ll have hard copies for Parent Reps, Coaches, and officials, but families should print their own at home if desired.) Families are reminded to bring a Sharpie and write their swimmer’s events, lanes, etc. on their arms prior to the start of the meet. Theme: Star Wars Results: I'm not sure where exactly the results will be posted but they will be somewhere in the pool area at the completion of each event. (IE: when all of the backstroke events are completed they will print those sheets out and post them.) I will email the final results later in the day on Saturday. General Meet Questions: Please use the “Meet Information” tab to find helpful info on things like general Meet Preparation (what to bring, etc), how to mark your swimmer, how to read a heating sheet (the Meet Program), how to read the individual results, how scoring works and the pool maps. There is also an “FAQs” page under the “For Parents” tab. If you still can’t find the answer, feel free to ask me or use the “Contact Us” page to find the appropriate person. The pool will not be as obvious from the street as most neighborhood pools so I strongly suggest checking out the google maps so you know what you’re looking for. Leave yourself time to find street parking. |
