Yesterday, I made my reservations at the Outrigger Reef for the upcoming Nationals. Much to my surprise, I found that the "special rate" for the Standard Room on their web page was $7/night cheaper than that offered for the USMS Group Rate. So I booked online for the Special Rate.
When I then talked to the woman who handles Group Reservations, she said that she had just become aware of the issue and was thinking about extending the Special Rate to the USMS people. Duh!! Seems like she will like or not once the word gets out.
Aloha Wayne, Barbara and Gail,
Hope you don't mind if I answer you all at once.
Wayne - the blocks have great traction and they are brand new. I forget the brand and am not at the pool. They are really nice.
Barbara & Gail - we have two pools that are deemed equal by USMS. Within each of the pools the depths are the same across all 8 lanes. In the 50 meter pool, the 8 racing lanes will have a buffer lane on either side with 3-4 warm up lanes on either side. The timing pads are not slick and in very good shape.
I think that answers you all. If not please let me know.
Warm Aloha,
Janet Renner
