Volunteer Resources
It Takes an Κ»Ohana
The Hurricanes run on our families. Every meet needs parents timing lanes, running tents, and keeping things moving β when the whole Κ»ohana pitches in a little, nobody has to do a lot. Military proud, Hurricane strong. π
Each family volunteers about 4 sessions per swimmer a year. Plenty of ways to earn it β on deck or behind the scenes. Single-parent and deployed families get a lighter load, and if you're facing a hardship, just ask. No one paddles alone.
