Hello Laser Families!

Thank you to all the families, volunteers and swimmers who stuck it out through the heat at last night’s B meet at Quail Valley. We had a great turn out, with so many first time swimmers as well as our pre-team kickboarders! Congrats to all!

A special congratulations to our spirit award winners: Leslie Davy, AJ Eaton and the Mals family!

Now it’s on to our Divisionals Championship Meet on Saturday morning, right in our neighborhood at North Creek!

THEME: The theme is Maryland! We will award our last spirit awards of the season, so come decked out in your Maryland gear (your team shirt is perfect!) to show your Lake Marion pride!

ARRIVAL TIME: Meet us in our team area by 6:30 AM and check in with the coaches. Our warm up is in lanes 1 - 4 from 6:45 - 7:05 AM.

TEAM AREA: Our team area is the concrete in front of the grass and baby pool, plus the grassy picnic area to the left of the baby pool. Bring chairs and tents!Swimmers need to stay in the team area so that Ms. Alissa and Ms. Cindy can find them when it’s time for them to swim their fastest!

MEET PROGRAM: Here is the meet program. Feel free to print out a copy of the program or follow along on your phone. Please review it with your swimmer(s) so they know their events/heats/lanes. There are two heats of every event so the meet starts at 8 AM.

SHIRTS: Fine Designs will be printing shirts on site. They will be set up near the gate entrance.

PARKING: Reserved spots are at the back of the lot. Attendants will be available to assist. Parking along the curb inside the parking lot is allowed once all spaces are filled. See the green lines on the parking map below.

There is limited overflow parking for family members coming later. (There should be plenty of parking when our team arrives as we have the first warm up!)

• Street parking on Arrowhead Rd is allowed (follow parking sign rules)
• Shadow Oak lot - https://maps.app.goo.gl/xUUiwbgRhR8Rt8tT8

• Latter-day Saints Church - 20020 Montgomery Village Ave, Montgomery Village, MD 20886 Please park on the Montgomery Village Avenue entrance side of the parking lot and NOT the Apple Ridge side of the lot.

CONCESSIONS: They will have full concessions, including breakfast, lunch, drinks and snack items, under the pavilion. Cash is preferred.

SPECTATORS: They will have seating set up on the clubhouse side of the pool for spectators. There is limited/no shade in that section and spectators are welcome to set up a tent there. They ask that NO spectators or swimmers set up on the far side of the pool (from the slide to the diving board)in order that there is adequate space for clerk of course, coaches, officials, and timers to move freely.

TEAM LUNCH:The team lunch will be at Habit Burger in Gaithersburg Square after the meet where swimmers will receive their last ribbons/medals of the 2026 summer swim season as well as the season’s final spirit awards.

Let’s Go Lasers!
