<p>concur with swim4school about the snack!!! Seriously!!! My d went on one particular OV where for some reason she couldn’t get food (don’t remember what the snag was…just the logistics didn’t work out, the upperclassmen who were driving the recruits around missed the chance to pick up food, and the head coach meeting was scheduled inconveniently) and was violently hungry for hours and hours. I heartily recommend packing granola bars, apple sauces, long-life chocolate milk, trail mix–you know, swim meet snacks! Can’t emphasize that part enough!</p>
<p>And about bookstore, FWIW my d didn’t buy any school logo shirts, either. I think she really WAS superstitious, LOL. I don’t know whether anyone drew conclusions from it–but she didn’t buy a shirt from anywhere, and once she had gotten her acceptance we ordered a ton of stuff online. :)</p>
