The following is information regarding our
team Volunteer Policy. This information is taken from our
Team Manual.
VOLUNTEER
COMMITMENT:
Volunteers can be a great asset to any
organization and help enrich all aspects of our program. Family
participation is necessary to ensure the continued success of the
team. Throughout you and your family’s association with MARS,
we ask you support the team through volunteer activities. One of
the main events that require many volunteers are our swim meets
that we host 3-4 times per year. According to USA swimming,
successful swim meets require approximately 60 volunteers.
Therefore, a successful MARS meet requires volunteers from each
swimmer’s parents.
For 2009, every family
is required to complete 12 points by December 31st. Families
that join the club after June 1st will only be responsible for 6
points their first year.
Any point not
completed will result in a charge of $20 for each point not
completed. Please see Appendix A for the complete details and list
of volunteer jobs.
These are specific
dates of events in 2009:
MARS hosted meets: April 24-26, May 16-17,
July 10-12 (all meets are at Mansfield ISD Natatorium), Lone Star
Championship (at Grapevine Pool - July 18)
Make-a-Splash Day: May 16 (Allen
Bolden pool in Vandergriff Park in Arlington,
10am-2pm)
A chart of volunteer opportunities and their
associated points can be found in the
Team Manual in
Appendix A. This chart is a sample chart an is not an
exhaustive list of volunteer opportunities. We welcome new
ideas from our families. We all have special skills, some of
which may be beneficial to the team as a whole. If you have an idea
that you think may help please let us know.
Contact Coach
Suzanne to discuss
your ideas.
