I have seen many of the posts made here from master swimmers from all over the USA, Canada and the World.
It has me wondering about the state of master swimming.
1. Which State has the most swim meets.
2. Which State has the most master swimmers registered.
3. How many master swimmers registered are in the USA

USMS is $29 + the LMSC fee (some clubs also charge an additional fee at registration)
Look, I appreciate that people have different and often challenging financial situations. But, respectfully, when you (or anyone) says "I can't swing it," I believe that is better phrased as "USMS is not worth the membership fee to me."
And that's fine, that's your choice based on your personal cost-benefit calculus.
For me they're both about 50 bucks. I suppose swing was a bad term to use because it implies afford. That's not really the case. In short, you're correct. I suppose i'm a bad example as far as prospective members go but there's gotta be at least a couple out there in the same boat as me.
