I guess it's not official yet, but the Championships Committee meeting minutes suggest the 2013 short course meet will be in Indy and the long course meet will be in Mission Viejo. It was nice to see that for both meets there was actually a competition, with Austin also bidding for SC and San Antonio for LC.
Indy and Mission look like good choice to me. What does everyone else think?
Two thumbs-up for Mission Viejo, I will definitely be going there. It is within driving distance from AZ and will be a great summer destination. I might stay another couple of days and hang-out on the beach, which there are plenty of in SoCal.
For those of you who haven't been there, its a great location in Orange County with rolling hills and trees. John Wayne Airport is about 20-25 minutes away and there are some good microbreweries not far away.
Barring unforeseen circumstances, I will be there along with a bunch of other 'zonies in August of 2013!
Kudos to MVN for bidding and winning this meet.
Indy for scy nationals is a great idea. Not so psyched for MV forums.usms.org/.../censor.gif. Too hot and muggy in OC during August. Mornings are usually nice due to the coastal fog, but after noon, it starts to get too hot. I'll still be there. Bring lots of sunscreen and drink tons of fluids!

Bring lots of sunscreen and drink tons of fluids!I was just out @ MV for the Zone meet and the weather was awesome, even a bit too chilly in the morning. Plus, there's good shade, lots of grass and decent amount of warmup space @ MV.
I was there thanks to my Type 40 TARDIS.You were amazing.I thought he had you til you split 22.34 for that last 50 M.Amazing.Kirk was right,in that last 25 M when the water started boiling in your wake even the announcers were speechless.
this is good info. I'd better get cracking with the :roids: since I've only got 4 years to bulk up. how do I manage to boil the pool? By providing a urine sample during the race? Honestly it DOES sound like something I would do...

PS. Psych sheets for both meets are not yet available so please stop asking for them...:banana: Asking for 2013 psych sheets? Pfffft. I only ask for psych sheets for meets that haven't been announced yet. Or bid on yet. And that probably won't ever exist. So where is the psych sheet for the Mid-North Pacific Long Course Yards Zone 2019 Invitational?!?!?
The news release gives the dates for Spring Nationals 2013, but not Summer Nationals. Previous post said August 7-11. Are those the dates?
You are too quick! We are aware the dates were missing and the update to the release is supposed to happen any minute. Most likely by the time this post is read. But yes, Aug 7-11 are the MV dates.
