I've been watching and waiting for information regarding Long Course Nationals - particularly hotel information. I finally found a link on the Spire site to USMS hotels. As I began the process, I found this curious statement:
This is a "Stay to Play" tournament.
All teams are required to reserve a hotel room block through
Traveling Teams in order to participate in the tournament.
Does this mean that individuals are prohibited from booking their own rooms? Due to the lack of information, many of us have already booked rooms that meet our personal needs. Can someone clarify?
I was looking at the psych sheets today and thought this seeding in the M45-49 800 free was interesting:
3 Rubacky, Mark S 46 NCMS 9:52.16
4 Rubocki, John S 45 SAWS 10:09.51
The big Rubacky vs. Rubocki duel! :)
We caught up before the big swim and we believe we might be related in some way. John won the duel by the way.
While in the area I saw fliers asking for volunteers, so the community really came in to help the meet. Well run with folks happy to welcome Masters to the region, and a fast pool. Thanks for a great Nationals!
Lodging woes aside, this meet was exceptionally well run. Thanks to all who were involved in making it a success :applaud:(and to the EMT who fetched my inhaler!:blush:)
