From: Subject: Relay Carnival Date: Monday, July 12, 2004 2:46 PM Hello everyone, Relay Carnival is this Wednesday, July 14th at Hayfield Farm Swim Club. We will meet at our pool at 4:20 and leave no later than 4:30 because of the rush hour traffic. If anyone needs a ride please let me know so I can make sure you get one. I am suggesting an alternate route to the directions I put in your packets since the mixing bowl will mostly likely be a nightmare at rush hour. So here they are: Take the Fairfax County Parkway Follow signs for the SPRINGFIELD FRANCONIA PARKWAY Cross Beulah Road and continue past Hayfield Rd. (Hayfield Rd is under construction) Continue to the second light after Hayfield and turn right onto KINGSTOWN VILLAGE PARKWAY. Stay in the left lane and turn left at the light onto Hayfield Road. Hayfield pool is located at the end of Hayfield Road on the right. The phone number of the pool is 703-971-9837. My cell phone number is 703-980-1978. I will have directions at the pool Wednesday afternoon. I will also have the Weather Notes that the NVSL is providing. Basically they state in the event of thunderstorms during the meet: All spectarors, swimmers, coaches, and officials will go immediately to their cars. A pool is one of the most dangerous places to be during a thunderstorm so decisions to clear the pool and half the meet will be made without hestitation. All attempts will be made to safely finish the meet Wednesday night. Generally there is a 15 minute wait between the last thunder or lightening strike and the continuation of the meet. No one should leave the pool parking lot until hearing the official word on the meet's continuation. You will be informed of any and all official decisions by Cathy or I. If you have any questions please let me know. Go FROGS!! Carole
