Meet information from our President:

Our meet against Pearland this Saturday morning will be held at Alvin High School which is located at 802 S. Johnson in Alvin, Texas.  The school is very easy to find.  You can take Clear Lake City Boulevard (FM 2351) or Nasa Rd. 1 (FM 528)  west to Hwy 35.  When you get to Hwy 35, you go south (to your left) down to Alvin.  When you get to Alvin, you should look for W. Adoue Street, and take a right on it.  A little way down W. Adoue Street you will come to South Johnson where you should turn left.  South Johnson runs right by the front of the school.  Please click here for a map that shows where the high school is located. 

 

Once you get to the high school, you will need to find the pool.  To help you find it, click here for a pdf of the school's plot plan.  Your best bet is to continue on South Johnson until you get to Stadium Drive where you should turn right.  You will then turn right off of Stadium drive at the entrance into the school campus.  There is parking by the basketball court as shown in the plot plan, and the pool is attached to the building labeled GYM in the plot plan.

 

Swimmers will need to check in with the coaches between 6:30 and 7:00 am and pick up their stickers which list their events.  If you have signed up for the meet, and for some reason can't make it or are running late, please contact our clerk, Karan Garske, at 832-274-6161 by 7:00 am to let her know.  If for some reason you can't reach her, you can contact me (Rob Pruett) at 281-543-7935.  Our swimmers will warm up as a group from 7:20 to 7:40 am.  All first shift (events 1-40) volunteers should check in with Annette Craig around 7:30 am.  The meet will start with the National Anthem at 8:00 am, and it should be over around 1:30 pm or so.  If you want to bring the order of events with you, you can print it off of our website by clicking here.

 

Pearland has rented the gym which adjoins the pool, so we will be able to camp out inside, but you will not be allowed to set up chairs in the gym (they don't want their gym floor damaged, so bring a blanket, sleeping bag or comforter).  There will be a concession stand, but it would be best to bring something healthy along for your swimmers to eat.  And, of course, don't forget your towels, swimsuits, goggles and caps.      

 

Pearland will give us some good competition, and I know our swimmers will do well.  So come prepared for some fast swimming and a good time.

 

Go Piranhas!!!

Message from our President:

If your swimmer needs to practice starting like they will have to in our meets, be sure to bring them to practice tomorrow (Friday) night.  We're going to set up our blocks, get out our starting equipment, and give the kids and our starters a chance to practice.

 

We're getting everything ready for our meet with Pearland this Saturday, and will be sending you more information on it shortly, so be sure to check your emails and our website later today and tomorrow.

 

Go Piranhas!!!

Message from our Volunteer Coordinator:

To Pineloch Piranhas Parents:

 

Thank you to everyone who has signed up to volunteer at the swim meet this weekend against Pearland!  Below is the schedule with volunteers.  We only have a few slots left to fill (2nd shift Timers and Runners), so if you haven't signed up yet, please sign up on the volunteer board during practice times or or email me.  If your swimmer has a teen sibling that would be interested in volunteering we would be happy to use their services and they can earn volunteer hours.

 

We also need a head timer for the meet.  If you've signed up to be a timer, please consider being the head timer for the Piranhas for your shift.   Thank you again for your cooperation and time!

Message from our Piranhas Board:

Dear Piranha Families,

 

Just a reminder that the community association does not want us to park between the park and the houses on Mabry Mill, because it creates issues for homeowners trying to enter and leave their driveways.  Kids can be dropped off along the Mabry Mill side of the park, and you can park in the parking lot, and along the park side of Whitlock.  

 

As always, please feel free to contact any board member if you have questions.

 

Go Piranhas,

 

The Pineloch Piranhas Board
