I am hoping to drop some time this summer by joining a summer swim program, which by the way...if anyone knows of good programs I'm still looking :) , but hopefully in Texas. Overall I need my times to go down about 30 to 40 seconds but I realize that is not going to happen in one summer. How much is a realistic goal to drop in one summer? I was hoping that maybe 10 to 20 seconds would be nice, or is that too much? Thanx a bunch!!!

i think you should set your goal to improve as much as you possibly can in the 100 *** and the 200 free.
Get in a great program
swim each day mon - sat
do 2 work outs a day at least 3 times a week
improve your technique, conditioning, mental expectations and strength.
mainly train don't go to many meets
swim in maybe 2
(besides your current times don't make the time standards of several meets so masters meets actually might be the best way to go since they don't have time standards)
If you put in the work
you will swim faster
who's to say how much you'll improve
I would encourage you to focus on the process of swimming faster and let the result happen as a consequence
