I'm shopping for a "last chance" meet for the 2012 SCY season. It should be,
After SCY nats, but before the end of the SCY season. That pretty much means one of the four weekends in May, either May 7-8, May 14-15, May 21-22, or May 28-29.
A well-run, larger meet, with plenty of rest between events, in an excellent, indoor (backstroke-friendly) pool.
Somewhere in the US (of course, SCY = US), but it does not necessarily have to be in the continental US. If there's an excellent meet in Alaska or Hawaii, it could be considered.
In a nice, vacation-worthy destination. And that does not necessarily rule out Texas! We are openminded! There are interesting things to see almost everywhere, even in Texas!
This is the first time I'm looking outside my immediate neighborhood, so I'm not at all familiar with the excellent meets outside of my zone. I am sure they are there, I'm just unaware.
Any suggestions? Thanks!
Hey Judd, nice to meet you at the Georgia Tech meet. The Classic City meet at UGA right down in Athens is usually right about that time, though I haven't seen a definitive date or if it's yards or meters.
Hi Patrick! It was good to meet you too. I like the St. Nick's meet at GaTech; the host club, Atlanta Rainbow Trout, does a great job, it's lots of fun, and of course it's a fast pool. Classic City meet ... For the last 10 years, the Classic City meet has been LCM, and on the first weekend in June. So probably it'll be the same this year.
Maybe I'm daydreaming, but I'm thinking maybe there might be a late-season SCY meet, maybe somewhere out west, for people who would have a tough time making it all the way to Greensboro for SCY nats. Maybe? The USMS calendar of events doesn't show anything yet, but maybe something will turn up.
