May 15th Officials Clinic - PLEASE ATTEND
Dolphin Parents / Swimmers:
Please see the below note from Sandi Lowther, Swim PEI President. This is an exciting opportunity for Dolphins and parents to participate in Canada Games. Please consider attending the May 15th session at the Credit Union Place. If you are attending, please email me at tmtynski@pei.sympatico.ca. Thanks everyone!
Tanya
---------------------------------------
Dear Swim PEI Board, Swim PEI club presidents and head coaches:
As a follow-up to our last board meeting, the following are two dates for the Clinic Refresher courses delivered by Gardiner MacNeill, Chair Island Officials. As per the attached document, Gardiner will also present the "How To’s" on how to become involved with Canada Games Swimming.
These two refresher sessions will only deal with Timekeeper, Stroke and Turn and Chief Timekeeper.
We are copying the head coaches, as this is a wonderful opportunity to have your older swimmers (16 & older) not participating as an athlete to be part of the Canada Games as an on-deck volunteer. We will require assistance with the award ceremonies, spectator marshaling, deck wipers, etc. So please spread the word to your swimmers. No advance registration for these two sessions are necessary as there are no costs for you to participate.
If a Summerside or Montague member is unavailable for the 15th, you are more than welcome to join the Charlottetown session on the 16th and vise versa.
DATES & LOCATION:
May 15th starting at 6:00 p.m. Credit Union Place Room #2
May 16 starting at 9:00 a.m. CARI Meeting room located between hockey arenas.
Kind Regards,
Sandi Lowther

Canada Games Volunteer Opportunity!
Dear Swimming Parent,
INVITE TO OFFICIATE AT 2009 CANADA GAMES
As you are aware PEI is hosting the 2009 Canada Games from August 15 to August 29, 2009.
For our Swimming community all the focus is on the second week of the Games (August 23 to 29) when we host Canada Games Swimming at the CARI Pool in Charlottetown and the 10 kilometer Open Water Swim in the South West River in Clinton. Swim PEI has been working over the past two years to provide training through clinics and on deck mentoring to ensure that any member of our swimming community that wanted to be involved with the 2009 Games would be certified.
Recently some people have asked what they can do at Canada Games Swimming.
1) Canada Games in conjunction with Swim Canada is responsible to select the Major Officials (Referee, Starter, Chief Inspector, etc) from people across the country.
2) Swim PEI is responsible to select the Minor Officials (Lane Timers, Head Lane Timers, Marshal, Recorder/Scorers, Runner and Safety Marshal). This means that Swim PEI needs to have 34 people for each of our 10 swimming sessions during the week. It is our intent to fill these position with Swim PEI members then to offer additional position to our neighboring provinces of Nova Scotia and New Brunswick.
To be a Minor Official, we ask that you be Level II certified (Timekeeper, Stroke and Turn and one other from the list below)
• Clerk of Course;
• Chief Timekeeper;
• Meet Manager;
• Chief Finish Judge/Chief Judge Electronics/Recorder Scorer (counts as 1 position);
• Starter.
Many of our members have already achieved this level, however some have asked if there is any refresher sessions available. Therefore Swim PEI is offering three refresher sessions to help people achieve their Level II. These sessions will only deal with Timekeeper, Stroke and Turn and Chief Timekeeper.
If you have any questions regarding your current level please contact Gardiner MacNeill, Swim PEI Chair - Officials, atagmacneill@islandtelecom.com.
HOW TO REGISTER
Registration is simple. Go to the Canada Games Volunteer web page http://www.2009canadagames.ca/en/volunteers.php, click on the "APPLY NOW" button then answer the questions. It takes approximately 15 minutes.
Some hints on registering
1) When you get to the Section SKILLS, click on Swimming
2) When you get to the Section SKILLS; Education, type Swimming Official
3) When you get to the Section AVAILABILITY; Swimming occurs in the Morning and Evening
4) When you get to the Section INTERESTS; click on Swimming
WHY TO REGISTER
1) Best Seats in the house to watch one of the most popular Canada Games sports.
2) A great way to support Swim PEI in hosting their largest event ever (so far...)
3) Terrific way to feel the excitement of Canada Games.
