[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids are done with swim team. I always enjoyed the community aspect of swim team.  Now I have the luxury of showing up for a meet and doing whatever job needs to be done and not being responsible for anyone but me.  I love volunteering and cheering the kids on.[/quote]

wait what? your kids are done but you still volunteer your time? why why why why why[/quote]
I officiate tons of club meets my kids don’t even swim in (mostly younger kid sessions where they generally don’t have volunteers). It’s a hobby.  Prob will also help out for nvsl meets after they graduate and move on.  It’s a way to give back and honestly, I think it’s pretty fun. [/quote]

I’m the other person that volunteers even though my kids have aged out.  I’m glad there are others like me out there.  When you’re in the thick of it and you’re being pulled in multiple directions it’s hard to imagine being able to volunteer because you want to.

To all the swim parents dreading the upcoming season, it really does get better once it’s no longer a obligation.[/quote]
