Parking

The parking lot at the Shorewood Hills pool will be generally unavailable except for reserved parking for coaches, officials, meet staff, and individuals with mobility restrictions who have handicapped licenses/passes. As a result, street parking will be available throughout the Village of Shorewood Hills. Typically street parking is limited to two hours, but the Village of Shorewood Hills will not be enforcing the two hour restriction on Wednesday, July 28. Swimmer drop off is available at the intersection of Swarthmore and Purdue. Meet attendees and spectators are encouraged to arrive early and allow for ample time to walk to the pool. The Shorewood Hills pool is located on a bike path, and we have ample bike parking for those that arrive by bike.

Limited bleacher seating will be available on the deck, and spectators can spread out on the deck to watch swimmers. Individuals with mobility impairments will be able to sit close to the pool deck.

These facilities have restroom accommodations and three changing areas with doors. Swimmers needing to change into specialized suits can use these changing areas.

We will have four gender-neutral portable bathrooms on site. One, which will be disability/accessible, will be near the tennis courts in the upper area of the site. Three will be in the lower area of the site (“tent city” but please remember it’s BYO tents). 

We currently plan to allow swimmer and spectator access to the bathroom facilities in the pool house, but if conditions become too busy, we may need to refer people to the portable bathrooms.

COVID Protocols

We encourage everyone who is eligible to get vaccinated. If you are not or choose not to be vaccinated, we ask that you wear a mask at all times on premises, including outdoors. Our focus is on our 11-and-under swimmers, who are not currently eligible for a vaccine. 

As a reminder, we are asking that you not come to the site or stay at the site if you don’t have swimmers during a session. Only 12-and-under swimmers and their fans should be on site for the morning session of Championship Saturday. And only 13-and-up swimmers and their fans should be on site for the afternoon session. 

We were thrilled in 2016 to welcome a record number of swimmers and fans to an All-City site. This year, we’re hoping to do our very best to give everyone a great experience and still keep all safe and happy. 

Spectators

We have about 350 seats in bleachers. We ask that you rotate out of the bleachers as soon as your swimmer’s event is finished. An accessible viewing area will be available at the turn-end (or 8-and-under finish end) of the pool. The first row of all bleacher seating will be reserved for people who have trouble climbing to higher bleacher spots. If a Meet Marshal asks you to relocate to accommodate a spectator needing one of these spots, please do so.

Heat Sheets

Heat sheets will be sold at all sites. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday will be $3 each.

Championship Saturday will include program cover and additional materials and will be $5.

The order of events will not be available on Meet Mobile, but results will be posted there. 

Volunteer Check-In

All volunteers will check in at the table in front of the main Seminole breezeway entrance. Volunteers will be able to step away to watch their swimmer’s races when they come up.

Special Considerations

Seminole Pool is a non-standard length – 26.5 beautiful meters! Here’s how you can convert your swimmer’s times to “Seminole Time”:

• SC Meters x 1.065 = SEM time
• SC Yards x 1.165 = SEM time

Championship Saturday will end at the conclusion of Event 70, the men’s 15-18 free relay. We will not be doing coach relays or announcing age group or final meet scores on deck at Seminole. We encourage teams to return to their home pools to gather and celebrate the results when we post them online and on Facebook at 6:30 p.m.
