It’s now the boys’ turn for Sectional posters! If you are a parent of a MALE athlete, keep reading.
It’s time to start thinking about Sectional Posters for ALL BOY ATHLETES!! We would like every male athlete who swam on the FCHS Swim and Dive team this season to have a poster!

Here are some things to know about these posters:
1. ALL swimmers/divers will have an individual poster made by their parent/adult. This will hang in the school building during Sectional week. Posters are due by Monday, Feb. 12. We will be hanging them during practice. Everyone is welcome to help!
2. The poster should be 14×22 in size. This is about 1/2 of a poster board.* Please use this size poster*. The custodial staff gets upset with us when the larger posters (due to their weight) fall during the night and cause the security system to trigger.
3. Feel free to take advantage of the amazing photos Jodi has taken this season. Find the pictures here https://jodimeinczinger.smugmug.com/ Feel free to use personal pictures or pictures from past seasons. The pictures don’t all have to include swimming.
4. Also, feel free to include stickers, favorite quotes, inspirational sayings, etc. to decorate your child’s poster. I have listed some instructions for viewing poster examples from the past. Find the directions below.
5. Don’t stress over this. Have fun with it! It’s one of the celebrations of the season that we all look forward to. Your child will love it!
6. I do know that CVS, Walgreens, and WalMart in town, or Shutterfly do offer options for digital posters. Several people have used this option in the past with very successful turnouts. It is just uploading photos and getting the poster printed.
Please have posters to the pool by 4:00 pm on February 12. Posters that are brought to the pool before then can be put on top of the lock box in the hospitality room. I will keep an eye out for these and make sure they are kept safe before I hang them in the school hallway on Feb. 12.
Directions for finding example posters on Team Pages:
1. Go to the top of the Team Pages website.
2. Click on the MEDIA tab.
3. Select photos from the drop-down menu.
4. When a group of albums appears, click on the album titled Sectional Poster Examples in the 2019-20 FCHSSnD Campaign.
5. These are just examples of past posters. I hope this are helpful.

Reach out with any questions.

Sectionals are here! Let’s pack the stands tonight to cheer on the ladies. Center Grove has said the “doors open” at 4:30. However, we are unsure if that means you can’t get in the natatorium or can’t get into the building to get in line until 4:30.
I would plan to get there early.

Here is the ticketing info:
Thursday, February 1
4:30p Doors open to public
5:30p Swimming Preliminaries begin
