The date to 'discuss the organization' of a USMS Club here at the Thomasville Y has been set for 4/25. I am starting to prepare a very short presentation and trying to anticipate questions.
One of the benefits USMS offers its member is insurance during all sanctioned events and organized workouts. What does organized workouts mean?
For those of you who have been in on the organization of a club, what questions should I expect to field? (I've read FAQ and looked at the documents Rob posted a couple of weeks ago.)
What else do I need to know? What have you found to be helpful? What I am asking for is your personal experiences.
Thanks!

Mel Goldstein, has developed a terrific program to address club development and he has a great deal of experience in dealing with Y’s. I would suggest you email him ( goldstein@mindspring.com ) and see if he can provide you with some insights.
In addition, the Georgia LMSC is in the process of developing a Masters Swimming brochure to describe Masters Swimming to the masses. Lisa Watson, GA LMSC Chair, can provide more details. Her email is lwatson@gc.peachnet.edu
Also available from the USMS National office is the promotional brochures “Masters Swimming, What's It All About”.
Good Luck!
