I see on the USMS website the dates are set for the summer nationals for Sunday August 8 through Thursday August 12.
I have a few questions.... where is the pool located in the city?
Why isn't the meet Wed through Sunday or Thurs to Monday?
What is the order of events?

I think the idea behind having this a Monday-Friday meet (open water event on Friday) is to encourage participants to stay around after the meet and see the island. That way people can actually see the area they are swimming in, not just going between the hotel, pool, and airport.
Its a great concept and my plan is to come a few days early and stay a few days after. I'm looking forward to it, never been to the Caribbean and am excited to get out of the summer heat of Arizona during August!
What is the order of events?
They are swimming Schedule 1 of the Meet Schedules (2010-2011). This is on Page 29 of the current Rulebook.
See you there!
