OAKDALE GATORS - VOLUNTEERS FOR MEETS
Parents, We Need You! No experience required!

As a volunteer, you will be actively involved and instrumental in strengthening swimming. With your positive attitude and willingness to lend a hand, you will have a great impact on your child's athletic environment, and his/her love of swimming. Volunteers are vital to the success our our program, and we encourage one parent from each family to volunteer at each meet. Our fundraisers provide additional opportunities to volunteer and help our team.

Our board members would like to have a list of volunteers for each job at each meet. Potential volunteers may sign up on-site (at least one week before the meet) or by directly contacting the board members.

Volunteer time slots are usually two hours (with breaks to watch your children swim if you are away from the pool).

If you have an interest in any of the jobs listed below, you may contact the appropriate person and give them your name, phone number and what meet(s) you'd like to work.
