We are all aware of the possible impact of the NATO Summit neetings and activities on the meet. We do not have any special information that is not available to the general public.
The best sources of information are actually press and TV briefings from official sources. You can recieve text messages or email updates at Notify Chicago, a city sponsored information link or the official Chicago NATO Summit website. (The Chicago NATO Summit link sends you back to Notify Chicago for traffic updates.)
Timers and Officials -- Timing assignments will be posted Friday, 11 May. Both timing and officiating could become challenging due to traffic or other problems. Please be patient and willing to pitch in.
Check-in and Psyche Sheets -- Check-in will remain open as long as possible. Swimmers who are late will be accommodated as best as possible. We will insert swimmers into heats where possible or create extra heats if necessary. We will not however, be able to re-run events already finished. Psyche Sheets will be posted on 15 May; the Live Results link is up-to-date with a draft of the Psyche Sheet.
