Schedules don't take that long to generate via GPRM. I have pre registered everyone ahead of time, print out the roster then when they show up check them off and check the PASSED INSPECTION box on GPRM. Simple and easy if they no show.

We race on a four lane track....so we start with one boy on lane 1...next heat said boy advances to lane 2 and a new boy...

I use Pledge multi surface formula and microfiber towels. Takes all the grime off.
