So, I see a few of you already into your 2008 SCY meet schedules. So, I got to thinking...I wonder who's going where this year?
This might be a great way to plan to make some new friends (drinking)/have some fun (drinking) with old ones once again...dang my (drinking) key is sticking again.
So answer the following questions and let the fun (drinking) begin::party2::drink:
1. What's your zone, LMSC, and club?
2. What meets are you planning to attend?
3. Are you going to Nationals in May?
Okay, I'll go first:
1. Dixie Zone, Georgia LMSC, Unattached
2. Meets:
- Auburn Masters Invitational, Auburn, AL 2/16-17
- St. Patrick's Day Invitational, Atlanta, GA, 3/15-16
- GA Northern Divisionals, Athens, GA, 3/28-30 (*USA-S meet)
- Gary Eaton Memorial Invitational, Atlanta, GA, 4/25-27
3. No to Nats for now. The Gary Eaton meet is my taper meet.

The meet entry info isn't available yet that I know of...The general meet listing is available at the Dixie Zone site: www.dixiezone.org/Meets.htm. Keep an eye out for the entry info there, probably in the next 30 days or so...
Anyone have a link to the Gary Eaton meet? Is it a USMS meet?
Mermaid,
Is your AMS LMSC, Allegheny Mountain? As in Pittsburgh, my hometown (actually, the burbs of Plum Borough/Penn Hills/Monroeville.)
I tried to look around for you, but all I found was some info through the Lake Erie LMSC http://www.lelmsc.org/.
The Lake Erie site listed "Allegheny LMSC (Team Pitt site)" www.psc.edu/.../tpa.htm under its "Swim Links."
Sorry, that's all I got...

(I'd say go Pirates! But, well...you know...15 years of losing wears on you.)
Mermaid,
Go here: www.usms.org/.../lmscwebsites.php
Click on your Zone and LMSC web sites and root around for meet/competition info.
Good luck.
Mark
I know what you mean...sometimes there's nothing...sometimes you REALLY have to dig.
- look in newsletters for announcements,
- past meet results (for probable upcoming meets)
- other links (AZ has a lot)
- individual team web sites (usually a best bet for their sponsored meets)
- neighboring LMSC sites, etc.
- contact one of your LMSC chairs
When I looked under Links/Teams/Ford Aquatics Masters (a biggie, I presume, but not sure if it's near you) here's what they show as tentative:
Ford Aquatics Masters Meet Info.(click on the meet info. you wish to view)

That's a good concept, but so far it looks like there is only 1 meet scheduled in Arizona this year:
www.azlmsc.org/events.htm
I'm sure there will be more as the time gets closer.
Not much offered IN Arizona, so I am attending a couple of Senior meets to round out the schedule:
Polar Bear - Masters, Feb 2-3, Tucson, AZ
Lost Dutchman - Senior, Feb 16-18, Phoenix, AZ
State Meet - Senior, Mar 14-16, Phoenix, AZ (9 trials/? finals) :cane:
State Meet - Masters, Mar 28-30, Tucson, AZ
Nationals in Austin
I wanna come to the meet and see people swim. That will help me how slow I swim compare to other peeps. Any suggestion will b appreciated.:confused:
