[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Chesterbrook and Tuckahoe parents got in a fight with parking at attendants when Orange Hunt hosted All-Stars.[/quote]

NVSL called the police on the D1 teams that did not listen to the directive about not setting up their encampment before the appointed time.  That was kind of awesome.[/quote]

What? I want to hear the whole story. I have never been to all stars. What's an encampment? What are the rules? [/quote]

I didn't know the whole story behind the incident involving the police.  The league and the All Stars host routinely establish no earlier than team area entry times and assign team areas to larger teams in an attempt to prevent (a) people from camping out overnight to claim all the best real estate and (b) a mad dash when the gates open.

Last year the Orange Hunt provided the following guidance:

Anyone near or on OH pool property before 7AM will be considered to be trespassing and local  authorities will be notified.  T[b]eam areas may be set up in the Orange Hunt Pool parking lot  NO  EARLIER THAN 7 AM on Saturday  morning. [/b]

[b]Tents that are set up prior to 7AM on meet day will be removed.  Teams will access the lot through the OH pool property entrance to set up Team Areas.[/b] There will be a volunteer onsite to welcome teams and take them to the next available Team Area.  Teams may set up in designated areas as marked on the parking lot. We encourage all teams to bring chairs,  blankets, etc. since the parking lot is the team area.

PLEASE NOTE:  
●  The NVSL and Orange Hunt will assign locations for Division 1 pools  to avoid the rush to  choose a spot and set up tents from those teams with the most participants.  
●  For teams sending 1-2 swimmer,  Orange Hunt will provide  a “Single Swimmers” tented area  and a covered pavilion near the tennis courts. Due to space limitations, there will not be  locations assigned for these teams. Please bring chairs.  
●  Teams from one division  are welcome to reach out and  organize a Team Area, under one tent,  for their Division.

For others, tents and awnings are strongly encouraged.  [b]Grills, generators, and fires are NOT allowed in the team areas.[/b]

No access to bath house changing rooms or bathrooms will be permitted for participants or  spectators. Portable restrooms will be in the pool parking lot/team areas.

As always, Coaches are responsible for ensuring that their swimmers report to the Clerk-of-Course on time. [/quote]
