[quote=Anonymous]Former NVSL team rep, current pool Board member, with my final swimmer graduating this year.  We have been blessed with a strong culture of a hands-off Board and a good stream of parents who will step in and serve as rep for 3-4 year terms (I was 100% the least swim-qualified rep in my 15 years of being associated with the program).

Our registration is slightly down.  I attribute it to how short the summer has become due to the FCPS schedule.

Our current reps are doing great (It's always a challenge for a rep who has been with the team for more than a few years (and grew up in NVSL) to remember what it is like when you are brand new to NVSL summer swim. Our pool Board is filled with swim parents (and multiple former team reps) so they appreciate how hard the Rep job is and give the Reps a lot of rope.

Without restarting the generation wars, getting millennial parents to volunteer is much tougher than Gen Xs.  We are having a tough time getting officials, even parents who were NVSL and college swimmers. [/quote]
