OK, it may be over a year away but why not start a thread on 2011 Short Course (Spring) Nationals? This meet will be held at the newly-renovated Kino Aquatics Center in Mesa, which is just east of Phoenix. So go ahead and pipe in, I'm sure we will get some good conversation flowing.
I also have to credit PAUL His wife Laura for the way they make there meets ENJOYABLE, it is always a great day at there meets. And of course4 the many VOLUNTEERS.:):chug:
OK....hotel, rental car, shuttle info all available now at: www.VisitMesa.com/USMasters

We will be hosting the SPMA/Arizona State Championships April 1-3 if anyone would like to get some "pool testing" done before the big show!
Seems to be some confusion still on the order events...please see below. Also...although Sky Harbor Airport is designated as the primary location for those flying in, if you plan on renting a car consider flying into Phoenix-Mesa Gateway if your lucky enough to have service from Allegiant Airways!

As I look thru the event list, I'm confused at the missing events # 16 & # 17. Where did they go ? Also what are they going to be ?
Look at the adjacent events - one's a mixed relay; the other's the women's 500. Men swim their 500 on a different day so the numbers are skipped (or adjusted, if you prefer).
