[quote=Anonymous]Coordinating summer swim volunteers is a thankless job. Bottom line is you need 40+ parents to step up each meet - often more for home B meets. You need people willing to fill the slots - and many jobs require training, so you only have a few people to rotate in. The NVSL pool my kids swim at has some fabulous families - parents who step up time and time again to marshal, time, run the snack bar, get certified in S&T, etc. - and many are also doing the 'behind the scenes' tasks as well. Our team reps have sadly not had the backbone to enforce the volunteer requirements. Some parents volunteer once or twice or not at all. Knowing some parents are not signing up or showing up does impact other families who are making effort to fulfill their family's volunteer obligations. For all you parents who are volunteering, your kids will appreciate it - if they don't already. [/quote]
