[quote=Anonymous]I've done S&T and time at least part of most meets when I have a swimmer. My kids are older now but even when they were little, we'd figure it out: take 2 hours vacation time from work, have one parent do the volunteering while the other works or watches the younger sibling etc. We've nearly aged out so do more of the bare minimum now which is still probably more than most (volunteering whenever I have a swimmer except in rare cases/conflicts). The thing I don't understand from reps is why do they always ask the parents who are already volunteering to do more instead of the ones that rarely do anything? Happens all the time at our pool. And in fairness, sometimes it's hard to know who is volunteering and who isn't - for instance, if I don't go to concessions, I may not see someone volunteering. I'd love to see a point system like many teams do for winter, or maybe how other summer teams do it because at least there's transparency instead of finger pointing. [/quote]
