[quote=Anonymous]OP- sorry you had a negative experience at your first volunteer event. I hope you give it another try. I love our summer swim experience. I have done most jobs (oldest in HS now). I have never felt the way others on the thread describe their experience. Our pool has been D2-D5 over the years, so a pretty competitive group, but the vast majority of volunteers are awesome. If you are a new parent, I agree timing is the best option. Also the food/snack bar area. Most people are standing in small groups and willing to talk. You may have to take the initiative though. Asking that volunteer coordinators roll out the welcome mat for each volunteer coordinator is asking too much. You don’t know their background or skills and they are, for better and worse, volunteers themselves. I volunteer at 3 schools and multiple other sports. I do not find summer swim team any different, except they need A LOT more volunteers. [/quote]
