The last swim meet was successful and all the kids were invited to the Cedar City Pumpkin Invite. The kids love this meet because they can win pumpkins for first place in each heat. Ryder was eager to get it started and see if he could win one. The meet rules were a little stricter due to being on the college campus. No sitting on deck unless you are wearing a mask. No sitting outside the pool area this was reserved for the swimmers. The swimmers were required to where their masks at all times unless they were in the water. They were provided a bag to keep their masks in while they are in the water.
The weather was great for sitting outside with the other parents and teams. Warm ups started and the kids were ready to get started. The younger kids were playing Covid Tag and the Doctor has to give you a vaccine. Once everyone had the vaccine they changed directions and played zombie tag. You never now much your kids are listening to you until you watch them play.
Everyone setting up.
