We have been recently kicking around the idea of doing a "Dash for Cash" type of meet and wanted to know a few things first..
- Is doing this type of meet legal by USMS rules, or is there certain criteria that have to be satisfied (out of the oridnary sanctioning stuff) to keep everything "above board"?
- Has anyone done this before, and if so, what pitfalls / benefits are there for this type of a meet?
- If this has been done before, how was the turnout and what did you think made a great difference in how the meet went overall?
Any constructive feedback on this would be appreciated..
Thanks In Advance!

A Dash for Cash meet is one that swimmers swim for money in it's most primitive form.. It could be for the fastest, the slowest, the one who gets closest to guessing their time, and other possibilities. The reward for the winner is cold hard cash (Though our rec district is balking at the idea of cash and wants us to possibly consider using gift certificates to somewhere.. Lame!)
Hopefully this clears up what we are trying to do for you..
