FACILITY ACCESS
Swimmers/Coaches/Officials-
Masks must be worn by everyone while entering/exiting the facility and in all areas of the Acadia Athletics Complex except the pool deck, where they are optional. It is important that as soon as you leave the pool deck masks are worn – please ensure you are wearing masks when you are not on the deck/pool.
Everyone must enter the Acadia Athletics Complex through the main entrance – swimmers, coaches and officials must give their full name to the front desk staff (and let them know if you are a swimmer/coach/official). They will check your name off the entry list submitted by Swim NS.
We have notified Acadia of all participants vaccination status, therefore you should not need to show proof… BUT, please be prepared to show proof of vaccination AND identification if you are asked.
Access will only be available to Coaches, Swimmers and Officials that are on the entry lists for the specific session
SWIMMER SEATING
We will accommodate swimmers & coaches in the upper viewing gallery (upper bleachers) in the designated swimmer seating area (see attached – left wing if facing the bleachers from the start end) in addition to the pool deck
SPECTATORS
We are excited to welcome spectators, however, to ensure everyone’s safety and to adhere to Acadia University regulations, we must work together and respect the following:
Limited numbers of spectators will be allowed in the designated spectator seating area in the upper viewing gallery (centre and right wing if facing the bleachers from the start end)
The upper viewing gallery (bleachers) will open 15 minutes before the scheduled meet start time for spectators
Session 1: 9:15am
Session 2: 3:15pm
Session 3: 9:45am
Capacity is limited; therefore, we ask that parents be respectful to others and only sit in the bleachers to watch their child(ren) race and then leave and others to come in… this will help ensure that everyone has the opportunity watch
All spectators must show proof of vaccination and ID when they arrive at the facility
Masks must be worn at all times (including when in the stands)
Physical Distancing in the stands is required for all spectators
Only swimmers and coaches may sit in the ‘Swimmer and Coach’ seating area
We ask that all spectators/families/parents respect the above regulations so we can continue to welcome spectators at all of our events
Please see the diagram below to better understand the seating
PARKING
The Acadia Christmas Craft Expo will be happening in the Rink at the Acadia Athletics Complex on November 20th and 21st from 10:00am – 6:00pm on Saturday and 10:00am – 5:00pm on Sunday.
This is always a very popular event for Wolfville and the surrounding communities, which means there will be a lot of cars parking in the Acadia Athletics Complex parking lot. Participants & families who are attending the swim meet that arrive before the warmups will likely not have issues finding parking, however if you leave and return on Saturday for Session II, it may be challenging. Please plan accordingly.
