500 Free Counters - If a swimmer has a counter for the 500 Free events on Friday evening who is not already on deck with the proper badge, please stop at the volunteer table to pick up an orange counter card. They must have possession of this card at all times and we ask that the counter leave the deck immediately after the heat. Please turn the counter card back into the volunteer table when finished.
