Lockers: Athletes can use the locker rooms as needed, please bring a lock if you want to secure your items in there. There will not be space for everyone to put their bags out on the swimming deck area.

Scoring: The meet is not scored. Thus the absence of rules about how many events a swimmer can participate in.
