Good morning, Torpedo Family!
We are slated to be in Shelby tonight for our meet against Shelby, Forest City, and Black Mountain.
This looks like a long meet, so expect to be there until 10pm or possibly 10:30pm.
That being said, there is a strong chance of storms this evening here and in Shelby. The coaches from the respective teams are going to be keeping an eye on the weather pretty much all day today. If we decide to cancel, it will be by 4pm, and I will send a message on remind and on post on Facebook.
If you haven't heard anything by 4pm, then we will be attempting to get the meet in. Should we go forward, please see below for information about parking. We will also need four timers per session, and you can sign up for that here: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/508084CABAE2AAAF58-50370324-valdese.
