So what do you do when you are stuck for hours, in a packed stadium, as the Supporting Parent at a Swim Meet? You look out for some challenges on the SteemVerse and @Qurator's Treasure Hunt Week 3 head butts me. So the clues (7 of them) have been dropped on Discord. And I am sliding in at the 11th hour as today's the last day.
I grabbed the doggy bag my lunch came in. Saved it to write the required text to qualify which is @Qurator's Treasure Hunt Week 3 along with my handle. Gobbled my food (I'm sure chewing just 20 times instead 32 won't harm me too much) and got ready to take pictures of the 7 Treasures. I liked that it had a fire design by the way.

At the beginning, when we were considering the Competitive level, a coach asked me if I was ready to commit. He said 50% comes from the child, the other 50% from the parent. Because I will have to be commited to bring him on time and for all sessions, and there will be days he wouldn't want to go, and I had to find ways to keep him going. I didn't know what I was saying Yes to 😭

Did you stop to count? 😉
Excitement
Adults still talk about the Milo trucks that visited schools. They don't make the school rounds as much now but they do turn up at most Sporting events that involve kids and I have seen them at every single swim meet since we started 4 years ago.
We have been trying to find out the secret to how they prepare their Milo because there's just something special about it. Or maybe it is the wait 😅
Mailbox
Ink
The swimmers are advised to write their Event, Heat and Lane on their arm. When he was younger, I used a marker pen and it was big so there was no missing his turn. Now in his teens, he says he doesn't need it, that he can remember. He let me write it with a gel ink pen so I can take a picture to show you what it looks like.

And that concludes my treasure hunt. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did and if you do want to take part in the next one, hop on over into Qurator's discord channel. When I joined Qurator I had to pay a one off fee, but now I believe it might be free. You only have to run your posts by the moderators so it lives up to the quality expected as they will not vote for poor quality posts. But they will tell you how to improve if you are not up to par, so it is a great way to grow here on the SteemVerse 🙂
