What is with the DUCKS?!? The OSHY Champion Meet has a long standing tradition involving DUCKS! The meet will include DUCK HEATS, DUCK HATS, PLUSH DUCKS and we have a DUCK POND to win prizes! GET QUACKING!

Check back HERE DAILY for new NKB Challenges REVEALED!

CHALLENGE #1 - BE GENEROUS | Bring a non-perishable food item for our Thanksgiving Food Drive and earn your 1st NKB Tatto and Stamp on your challenge card. Challenge cards can be picked up at the Greeter table right inside the front door of the YMCA. Food items can also be dropped off at this location. You can complete this challenge anytime throughout the meet. BE GENEROUS! 

CHALLENGE #2 - BE GRATEFUL | MPR #1 available at 9 AM (Duck Pond) Write a thank you post card to a coach, parent, or someone important in your life. In order to complete the challenge you must have a full address - the Y will mail the cards out at the end of the meet! Swimmers can take their card with them to finish and turn back in at the duck pond when complete (with full address) to receive their stamp and tatto. 

CHALLENGE #3 - BE KIND | MPR #3 (Awards Room) Recognize someone for their kindness on a "link" and we will add it to our kindness chain!

CHALLENGE #4 - BE POSITIVE | Front Lobby available 9 AM - 3 PM (Pool Windows Next to NKB Plaque) Always try to find the good in people! Complete the NKB Challenge by creating a "Shout-Out Sun" to share a postive message, phrase, or word. Write your message on the sun and tape it to the wall to spread POSITIVE VIBES.

NKB SHIRT UPDATE | The first 40 swimmers in the 9-12 session, 30 swimmers in the 8 & Under session, and 30 swimmers in the OPEN session who complete all four challenges can earn an NKB shirt. Shirt sizes not guarenteed. Completed cards can be turned in at the GREETER TABLE at the Main Entrance.

DUCK HEATS

Listen for the DUCK CALL right before the start of a heat to signify a DUCK HEAT! This will happen randomly, many times throughout the meet. The winners of the DUCK HEATS will receive a ticket. Swimmers should take their DUCK HEAT ticket to MPR #1 to receive their DUCK HAT and have their picture taken to be put on our DUCK WALL OF FAME. Swimmers can take their picture off the wall when they are done for the weekend. If your swimmer was NOT given a Duck Ticket and they believe they won a Duck Heat they need to speak directly to their coach. Volunteers at the duck table do not have access to results. 

DUCK POND

A big part of the Champion Meet is collecting fun little rubber duckies. Each BEST TIME earns swimmers a sticker - after they earn 3 stickers they can PICK a DUCK at the DUCK POND to win a PRIZE. (located in MPR #2). Sticker sheets are available on the pool deck OR at the duck pond. Swimmers can also earn a BONUS sticker by completing a NKB Scavenger Hunt that can be turned in at the duck pond for a sticker. (NKB Scavenger Hunt sheets available on the pool deck or at the duck pond) 

DUCK DRAWINGS

The OSHY Champion Meet is a unique swim meet where swimmers at ALL levels get to be CHAMPIONS! NEW this year we will be having multiple drawings for LARGE PLUSH DUCKS throughout the meet. Every time a swimmer completes their heat (in all events) they will receive a Y token. They then exchange that token for a entry ticket into the DUCK PLUSH DRAWING. Winners will be announced on the pool deck at the end of each session on Saturday and Sunday - MUST BE PRESENT TO WIN! (Friday night swims can turn in tokens for entry slips at the next session they swim in - no drawings will be done on Friday night.
