https://community.usms.org/swimming/f/general/4848/psac-championshipsI&#39;m taking my daughter on an outing to the upcoming PSAC Swimming Championships in Mechanicsburg, PA. I know that some of you swim on a college team. If any of you are going to be there, let me know, and the little one and I will be cheering you on byen-USTelligent Community 12https://community.usms.org/thread/58685?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 11 Feb 2007 12:57:27 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:14a4ca50-8853-454a-8d82-f91b517ca633Former MemberNo way. That avatar looks like a male superhero. ;) Or, a butterfrogger with sore knees who is forced to resort to backstroke. Have fun at the meet, Barb. How old is your daughter? She&#39;ll be 7 in May. Leslie is her middle name, btw, after my father. I&#39;m taking her to the meet so (1) she can see how the strokes she&#39;s learning look like when someones swims fast (can&#39;t help her there on the homefront), and (2) to intrigue her a little, keep her enthusiam up for swimming. There&#39;s a nice story about her experience with swimming that I might post up someday. Basically, swimming was the key to getting by a gross motor skill delay that she&#39;s worked on with physical therapists for years. She had a huge breakthrough this summer, working her tail off in the water, that translated onto land, and the delay is noticeable only to those who know about it. It&#39;s nice to know that our sport did that for her.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/58653?ContentTypeID=1Sun, 11 Feb 2007 01:19:56 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:0dddc2b9-df3d-4b64-ad55-ec6a2986b01dThe FortressIt does have that laugh-a-minute look of a butterflyer...

Hey, nature is nature. I love this avatar: besides looking like one tough customer, doesn&#39;t the eagle have that swim cap/slanted goggles/nose clip look?<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/58399?ContentTypeID=1Sat, 10 Feb 2007 12:34:38 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:a800e27c-2e24-43ff-9cc3-b59417ccb99aFormer MemberBarb- I hope none of the swimmers go out too fast while you&#39;re watching- I&#39;ve seen first-hand what bald eagles do to exhausted salmon...
