ISHOF

Allen Stark
I just saw at the Swimming World website that the International Swimming Hall of Fame is planning a $71 million renovation,if they can raise the money.Count me in when the fund raising starts.I went to visit there last year and while the pools were nice the actual Hall of Fame was a huge disappointment.It reminded me more of my attic(lots of old stuff strewn around with little regard for order)instead of a sparkling representative of our wonderful sport.

  • US Masters Swimming is a big supporter of the ISHOF The ISHOF also hosts the annual induction ceremony for the IMSHOF (International Masters Swimming Hall of Fame). This year it was held in conjunction with our annual convention in Dallas, Texas. USMS members Rich Burns and Lois Kivi Nochman were inducted. If you ever have the opportunity to visit the ISHOF in Fort Lauderdale, be sure to introduce yourself to CEO Bruce Wigo. Bruce loves Masters swimmers and the contributions they have made to the ISHOF! The IMHOF Ceremony at convention was fabulous! So many of us were able to attend and watch our friends inducted. Lois and Rich both recognized their coaches (Skip Thompson and Marie McSweeney) and many competitors from years past. I could have listened to the swim stories all night... but Mark Gill was there to very graciously keep the ceremony moving!
