Volunteering
The Wahoos depend on family volunteers to run successful meets. There are a variety of roles available. Parents may volunteer for team leadership positions and swim meet support positions, the latter of which are mandatory. If you’re new to swimming, volunteering as a timer is a great place to start. A description of the various volunteer positions available can be found in the WLST Handbook.
