All,
I'm thinking about attending convention in three weeks. My reasons are several but most important is that I want to become more involved in USMS and I figure the best way to find out how/what/when/where is to attend convention.
Does this make sense? Would it be worthwhile?
Paul
I have never had any interest in being involved in USMS politics and
have avoided it for 20 years
That is an interesting outlook, and almost entirely without merit, since USMS is a corporation doing it's annual buisiness at the convention. Any time there are hundreds of people together, there is the possibility of disagreement over issues. I would hardly call their discussions politics.
Since politics are not a part of USMS, we are left with the statement that you are not interested in being involved in USMS, which is also not accurate, since you swim a lot and have posted and replied so many times on these DFs, and have quite a following, apparently.
So I am left with the possibility that you wrote in code, really wanting to go to the convention and participate in a meaningful way? That is terrific!
