Summer Thunder on Sunday and Monday

LOEST Families,
Here is the information for Summer Thunder. We are asked to provide a timer in Lane 8 for the duration of the meet on Sunday and Lane 7 for Monday. We can divvy this up in blocks of time, but we have to make sure to cover our timing obligations. For certified officials, you are welcome to wear your gear if you would like to volunteer in that capacity. The attachment includes the lane assignments for warm-ups, as well as an estimated timeline of the meet on each day. Good luck to all the swimmers!

Thank you for entering your team in our 13th Annual Summer Thunder Meet!  We are looking forward to another fun and exciting meet and are happy to be hosting the meet at the Klein High School pool again this year.

Attached are the team warm-up assignments, team lane timing assignments, estimated timeline, and team list with total athlete and entry counts.  Please remind your families that the estimated timeline is an estimate, the meet can run ahead or behind schedule. 

Teams are also requested to provide lane timers, as listed on attached Lane Timer Page.  Please make sure your timing chairs are kept full throughout the meet with volunteers from your team if you are assigned timing chairs for the meet.

We are very happy to have Michael McBroom, National Team Member, American Record Holder, FINA Worlds Silver Medalist for all Summer Thunder Athletes.  He will be having a motivational athlete talk session in the pool area from 10-11 am prior to warm-ups on Sunday.  Autograph and picture taking at designated times during the meet will be held as well.  And he will be assisting with the award presentation both days at the end of the sessions each day.

Also, please remind your coaches that all coaches MUST have their NWAL issued badge to be allowed on deck at the meet and pick up heat sheets.  Teams are limited to no more than 3 coaches on deck per team.  Each team will receive up to 2 complimentary heat sheets for their coaches.

Meet Set-up for swimmers and their families will be available indoors in the school cafeteria.  No items may be left inside the school overnight, as the school is being used during the day on Monday for school activities.

Monday:  Nobody will be able to enter the building before 3:00 pm, due to school activities taking place on campus during the day.  Please do not attempt to enter the building on Monday prior to 3:00 pm.

Please share all this important information with your team!

We look forward to seeing you at the meet!

Please contact Meet Director, Donna Akins, at[email protected] if you have any questions about the meet.
