https://community.usms.org/swimming/f/open-water-training-and-technique/24692/quassapaug-swimAnyone else doing the Quassapaug swims this coming weekend? I&#39;d love course information from anyone who&#39;s done it before. And more important, how&#39;s the place for spectators? My son is totally over the whole standing at the shore thing, and since I&#39;men-USTelligent Community 12https://community.usms.org/thread/264483?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 26 Aug 2008 15:47:49 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:e522ebb4-be7c-48fc-8939-b2d55318503dFormer MemberI think my son is vetoing the idea of going. I stuck him in the car for two hours today to go to Boston so I&#39;m not sure I can do that to him again on Saturday. Especially not starting at 5 in the morning! At best, it will end up being a &quot;date&quot; day for my husband and I... See you in a few days, Sydne I did this swim last year and it would be a long day on the banks of the lake with little to do. I am doing just the 1.5 mile only but the lake itself is grand.<div style="clear:both;"></div>https://community.usms.org/thread/264479?ContentTypeID=1Tue, 26 Aug 2008 09:27:39 GMT3187ac58-ba85-4314-b79a-c45cd885e09a:85d0c75c-e523-43a5-9ed1-499c46387b7fsydnedI think my son is vetoing the idea of going.
