Cardinal Hill does a great job and the pool is the best for times. Space for pitching tents is a little tight but plenty of space to roam.

Seven Locks was great! They’ve hosted divisionals or relay carnival three years straight at their beautiful new pool and are always wonderful hosts for Division D!

I will say the hosts were great and the volunteers from around D1 were awesome. The pool deck was hot and offered no shade.

Food was also good, my only complaint is lack of shade. It becomes a long, hot day without enough tents and umbrellas.

Not that this excuses verbal abuse, but the t shirt vendor was particularly awful. I spent over an hour standing in line, and it doesn't sound like my experience was unusual. And they were sold out of the popular items well before 8am. There weren't even that many people lined up, it just moved really slowly and was not adequately staffed or stocked. I felt bad for the kids running the stand, sorry to hear Hayfield took it out on them (I didn't see or hear that, but am not completely surprised based on the level of frustration I heard in line).

Otherwise, Hayfield did a great job. The team areas were nice, they lots of room for parents to hang out and watch the meet, tents up for shade for the timers, good concessions. Thanks for hosting!

Thank you for coming to our club. The vendor was awful. Hubby stood in line for 2 hours waiting to buy our Kid a shirt. They should have had some shirts with the front & back already made up. Then have the kids strokes added. But instead they had to screen print the front, back & customization done as parents waited in the hot sun for hours.

NVSL does not play. Custom t-shirts at divisionals huh?

Mansion House kept the trains running on time, Kona Ice truck was a nice touch, volunteers were lovely, tee shirt vendor was great but the spectator seating at that pool is so problematic. Literally a bring your own yard chair situation and sit in it at a 90 degree angle lunching forward on a small retaining wall for most ...

Hello fellow PMSL Div E parent! Yes, it was a fun meet! I am always so appreciative of pools that host Divisionals/All Stars. It is so much work!

A wonderful thread for all the crazy swim parents to congratulate each other.

Shout out to Vienna Woods for D4.
It’s a beautiful facility and the grill was a great way to eat while viewing.
Their reps are lovely!
(I am from a different pool in D4.)
