The Big Shoulders swim, held in Chicago Sept 6th. Offered the new look in USMS sanctioned swims, political partianship. For a link to the discussion go here http:/.../showthread.php This is the same organization that is running next years Nationals. USMS, you need to address this.

  • ILMSA (Illinois Masters Swimming Association) did sanction the event. The event organizers were Big Shoulders-Chicago Masters and University of Illinois-Chicago, not Illinois Masters. ILMSA does not show any political partisanship.-YOU JUST DID ILMSA did not approve the shirt and medals for the event. ILMSA does not support the decision made by the event organizers ILMSA wishes to hide its head in the sand at Ohio Street Beach immediately after screaming..."Not Us! Not Us!" Love it when people in leadership positions start looking for the door when trouble appears. ILMSA is not hiding anything. I have received many emails and phone calls regarding the event. ILMSA doesn't approve the logo designs and medals for events. I apologize that the event organizers used inappropriate judgement in there decision in printing the shirts and the medals. We are looking in to establishing policy and legislation to ensure this doesn't happen again. Nadine KM Day, ILMSA Chair
