I haven't thought this through so it is probably a hairbrained idea but... Has anyone ever proposed a national Masters gathering that is not "championship oriented", e.g. where you aren't limited to three events if you can't make NQTs, perhaps with an associated open water event, and just more of an orientation toward gathering than high performance?

    Lindsay, I am your servant, tell me what to do! Gee golly, I don't get an offer like that very often! :eek: Having previously stated: I haven't thought this through so it is probably a hairbrained idea but... So I guess your first task should be to create a detailed step by step plan leading to the inaugural event! Perhaps the first step would be to determine whether people would really support such an event, or whether it is a "that sounds like it would be a lot of fun but..." type thing? I really think it has a lot of potential but, as with any new idea, there are a lot of unknowns. Actually, maybe we should let the brainstorming continue for a while longer? Isn't the USMS Convention in California this year? Given Peter's revelation perhaps we can attend and take notes... :D I'm totally over my head on this!
