Frequently Asked Questions

  • I’ve forgotten what I signed up for. How do I get that information?
    Go to the website under Volunteers and click on the Sign Up button. Then follow the instructions to review your jobs by entering the e-mail address you provided when signing up. You may also request that your assignments be emailed to you.
  • I need to get out of one of my positions. What should I do?
    If it is more than one week from the event/meet, go online and sign up for another assignment so that you still have a minimum of 6 positions. Then contact the Volunteer Coordinator at mswim@lvst.org with the position you need to be removed from. An email will be sent to confirm your new assignment. If its less than one week to the event/meet, it is your responsibility to find a replacement.
  • I don’t know who to call to find a replacement?
    Call any swim team family – everyone understands the volunteer assignment situation and the need to make scheduling changes. Use the printed Team Directory for contact information of other swim team families.
  • What happens if I don’t show? Or I’m significantly late?
    Missing work assignments and even being late for swim meets seriously and negatively impacts the team. A strict “Late Arrival/No Show” penalty of $100 will be assessed.
  • My schedule does not allow me time to volunteer. What can I do?
    You can pay a volunteer opt-out fee of $400. Please contact the Volunteer Coordinator at mswim@lvst.org with your request to opt-out. Payment arrangements will be made at that time.
  • I only have a High School swimmer(s). How many volunteer positions should I take? Parents of High School swimmers (those swimming on a HS swim team and will not participate on the LV team until May/June) are required to volunteer for 4 positions.

I am a Coordinator and need to find out who has signed up to work certain positions. Where do I find that information?
Contact the Volunteer Coordinator at mswim@lvst.org for access to our MSwim volunteer database (read only). There you will be able to search by events, meets or job description, etc. and print out your results.
