Parking and Visiting Team Area

Very Important!!!!! We ask that you use our lower lot at 528 Pensacola and be mindful of the residents in the neighborhood when street parking.  Please do not park in the upper pool lot off of Cedar Bluff, or the Pensacola cul-de-sac and only park on one side of the street throughout the neighborhood.  (Please take note of the one side of the street parking regulations or you may have to leave the meet to move your car)

The visiting team area is outside of the gate in the grassy area.  The staging area for 8 and under swimmers is outside of the gate along the fence.  If you would like to come out on an earlier day to see the space, just let us know and we will meet you. You are welcome to bring tables, chairs, blanket or tarp, tent(s) or whatever you need. *Please make sure swimmers stay out of the shallow end/none meet side of the pool.  This is for their safety, thank you.

Alcoholic beverages and smoking are not allowed in the pool area during GKAISA meets.

Concessions

We urge you all to "Eat at the Meet" and have two areas to serve you.  On the side of the pool nearest the kiddie pool, our concession stand will be open and features packaged snacks, sports drinks, and ice cream.

Our Hospitality area is called the SHARK BITES CAFE and which is usually located directly across the pool outside the far gate on our basketball court.  We serve grilled and homemade meals and snacks just for swim meets.  We offer burgers, hotdogs, grilled chicken, salads, fresh fruit and assorted side dishes and desserts.
