After swimteam came home and tested.

Coach, swimmer, or parent? Summer league or USS?

Just a parent. I have two daughters 7 & 9 who both love being in the water. This will be their first year on a team. From what I saw from their first practice is that it is very beneficial to have a pool that they can swim in just about year round.

The wife will be picking up some Dichlor on her next trip to Sams. Should I go ahead and get another bottle of stabilizer to get me to the 70-90 range or wait until I get the Dichlor? From the best guess chlorine chart my chlorine ppm level is where it shoudl be. I have 2 more bottles of the liguid chlorine but I did not put any in this morning. My SWGC is still turned off. Should I go ahead and turn it back on at a lower % output? Thanks.

If you can buy dichlor from Sams, I wouldn't buy any stabilizer. The price is low enough, so that it's cheaper to by dichlor as 50% stabilizer, at $2 per pound, than it is to buy local small quantities of 100% stabilizer at $4 or more per pound.

Buy borax, though, since dichlor will tend to push your pH down over time . . . BUT besides raising the pH, adding enough borax to reach 50+ppm of borates has advantages of its own.
