The Pacific Masters Swimming 2002 Short Course Yards Championships will be held at the University of California Santa Cruz April 12, 13, and 14. The postmark deadline is March 30 and must arrive no later than April 3rd.
Santa Cruz is a beautiful scenic town on the California coast just north of Montery and about 70 miles south of San Francisco. There are many reasonably priced hotels near the pool. There are also many unreasonably priced hotels there also.
The meet sheet is at

There are many Pacific Masters swimmers who are in New Zealand competing at the FINA World Masters Champioships, so it might be the year to sneak a medal.
(It the Championships have less than 700 swimmers entered, it will be considered a small championship) :D

Congratulations to Michael and all the others that helped to put on an excellent meet; to us swimmers it was well run and a lot of fun. And thanks to whatever power made the weather perfect - warm and sunny. It was expecially nice to step off the pool deck for a spectacular view of Monterey Bay.
According to the Pacific Masters web site www.pacificmasters.org the meet had 'over 800 swimmers' and 13 national records, two of which were relays. Yes, I think NEM is correct - their championship is the largest and best meet east of California!
