For MA residents who cannot afford to go to Vermont to swim in a big cool exciting LCM championship at Middlebury, Bay State Games is right here at Blodgett Pool at Harvard University.
Very cheap, you get to watch lots of fast kids, you get a free cap and T-shirt just for entering, and if you win first to third place, you get a free jacket.
It's close, if you live in Massachusetts.

Not sure this is the right place to post this.... Not a ton of masters swimmers do this meet, which makes it very friendly for those who do.
I'm going to be there!
And I'm going to Vermont too - it will be my one travel event of the year. We're not really vacation people so this will be a great opportunity for me to get out of Worcester for a weekend
Though a trip to Cambridge also gets me out of Wormtown!
