How do I volunteer?

I am looking for information on how to become more involved in the age-group swimming community, i.e., becoming an official or working at a swim meet, etc. I don't have children, so I don't know the first thing about what I should do and I did not find any useful information on the U.S. Swimming website. Does anyone have any advice? Thank you.

  • So true about the adults without the children. At last year's Illinois age group champs they arrested a pedophile who got down on deck in the capacity of a photographer, so it would be good to go through the steps to show you are safe around children. If you have a YMCA around you, they might have a swim team. YMCA's are always looking for volunteers. That can get you hooked into the swimming community.
