Jobs, Donations & Parent Volunteers

Is it really "volunteering" if it's required?? Probably not... but jobs are at the heart of Cedarbrook swimming, and we deeply value the time and effort of all our volunteers who help make our meets and events a success! Most of these volunteer roles take place during swim meets and are essential to their successful operation. From timing races and organizing swimmers to managing the scoring table and running concessions, each job plays a crucial part in keeping the meets running smoothly and on schedule.

NEW THIS YEAR - In a never-ending effort to make the jobs more flexible for busy families and more fair overall, we are changing from a "jobs per summer" format to a "points per summer" format. This will allow us to create "half-shifts" for several positions, which should help families juggle working, childcare for younger siblings, and of course - summer swim! 

Points have been assigned to each job to be roughly equivalent to the amount of hours it will take to accomplish. Full-meet jobs are 2 points, half meet jobs are 1 point, and shopping/behind the scenes jobs are 0.5-1 point. 

We recognize that this is not a perfect system, but we sincerely hope that changing the jobs system will make summer swim a little bit easier!
