Timers & Officials Needed
Timers & Officials are needed for this season’s meets. To become an official, you must shadow an official a few times and then take a test (can be done in a group to make life simple). If you're willing to help in this capacity, contact Ann Norris at 835-2556. Timers will also be needed and sign up sheets will be posted on the VTSC bulletin board at the HS Pool.
You may also contact Colleen Price at 835-5378.
