Announcements and Calendar
True Team Sections
On Saturday, January 13th Roseville will attend True Team Sections at Stillwater Junior High School. This meet is unique in that all swimmers entered can score points, rather than just awarding points for the top five finishers in each race. Typically, teams that are "deep" do well at True team.
We are allowed to enter four individuals in each individual event and up to four relays in each relay event at this meet, which makes it similar to our regular section meet in February (though at Sections, we are only allowed one relay entry for each relay event).
The meet will begin at 1:30pm, with warmups starting at 12:00. Diving will take place at 9:00am.
Coach Richards will drive an activities bus for those who need transportation. The activities bus will depart Parkview at 11:15am on Saturday. There is a limit of 16 athletes on the activities bus, so please follow this link to reserve a spot on the bus for Saturday. People who do not ride the bus will need to get a ride to Stillwater Junior High, and arrive at 12:00pm for warmups.
Similar to the Duluth meet, this meet takes place over the lunch hour. It is a good idea to pack snacks for a meet like this, and avoid eating a large or "heavy" lunch beforehand.
Let's have a great "True Team" meet this year!

Transportation
A shuttle bus will run from RAMS to RAHS to Parkview on a daily basis after school. Below are the scheduled times and stop locations:
First Stop: RAMS Arrive at 2:40, Depart at 2:45 for RAHS Bus will load on County Road B2
Second Stop: RAHS Arrive at 2:55, Depart at 3:00 for Parkview The bus will load outside of the Auditorium Entrance
Third Stop: Parkview Arrive at 3:10, Depart 3:15 (no other stops) The bus will drop off in the upper lot at Parkview
Transportation to and from meets
In the past, we have scheduled busses to pick students up at Parkview between 3:30 and 3:45pm to take them to away meets. This allows students to grab their meet supplies from their lockers before boarding the bus. Students who ride the activities bus from RAMS or RAHS to Parkview should have plenty of time to arrive and board the bus to the meet. The bus will also pick students up from the meet after it is finished and return them to Parkview.
**Due to the ongoing bus driver shortage, we cancelled busses to away meets last year as they were unreliable and on more than one occasion did not show up at all. Though it was inconvenient for families to need to arrange carpools to away meets, at least it allowed everyone a chance to plan instead of scrambling to figure out transportation if the bus didn't show up. We have scheduled busses to away meets this year, but will cancel them if there are issues with them arriving on time.**
