Very nice post Frank. I think your mixing up the distance to all 3 days is a good idea, especially in regards to increased participation. The utilization of the warm up pool is something they do for Distance Day at the Harvard meet (New England SCY Champs). They offer a small discount for the splash fee, as I recall, for an in the water start as the pool is to shallow for a dive and they do get a number of folks to enter.
A couple of last things with this years Colonie Zone entry.
I had been monitoring the Colony Zone web site for meet and entry info and upon reflection all i remember seeing under this meet was the date ,location maybe the entry closing date and then this "more details to follow" , when i saw it on Saturday, I guess, it was to late.
Also the 12 midnite entry opening might be ruling out most of us old folks, it's been years since I even stayed up for New Years. How about a nice 8 AM entry so we can catch all those young folks during their commute. Just a silly thought.
