LOCATION DETAILS

PARKING
  • Maple Ridge does not have available onsite parking; team members must park on the neighborhood streets.
  • Parking is allowed on one side of the street only. This will be marked with signs.
  • Emergency vehicles need to be able to pass and access fire hydrants so please do not park on both sides of the street, in cul-de-sacs or block a hydrant.
  • Marlins from the 2023 season might remember the Maple Ridge pool... there is a STEEP hill leading towards it!
SEATING
  • Marlins parents/spectators will be on the non-pavilion side (lane 5 side) of the pool. Please keep the ends open.
  • Chairs are NOT allowed to be set up on the other side of the pool. This side will be for walking on and off and viewing races.
  • Maple Ridge will set up their family areas throughout the parking lot. It's a great place to spread out, and we are welcome to join.
BULLPEN
  • Marlins bullpen is in the grass area around the baby pool; shallow end of the pool. (Adjacent to your spectator area.)
  • Swimmers will walk down the empty side of the deck to merge and stage behind the blocks.
GATES
  • Maple Ridge has (2) gates: the front gate and one near the pavilion.
  • Spectators please use the pavilion gate so we do not bottleneck the front gate where Maple Ridge swimmers will enter and stage.
