Why are SC nationals in April this year? I hope this won't happen in future years. This has really changed our training schedule i.e. it makes it a short winter! Also here in Colorado it conflicts with ski season. Does anyone agree with me?

  • A couple of comments; - Hi Barb! - I actuallly prefer having an earlier SCY meet, the problem with having it in May is it doesn't allow much training time till LCM - The topic of hosting nationals was brought up at the convention, a number of people made note of how the current process is a bit adversarial and not "proactive". Thanks to Mel, a couple of us have taken the lead in going after locations rather than waiting for them to come to USMS. FYI, a number of the sites mentioned in this thread now have bid packets in hand and hopefully will seriously consider hosting in the coming years. We all want fast pool and beautiful surroundings!
