Newbie Question about hydrating

Hi: I am a newbie to open water swimming competition and have only ever done open swims as part of triathlons. I am doing the big shoulders race on Saturday in Chicago and am wondering what the deal is with hydrating or taking GU? What do folks do to refuel on longer swims? Would appreciate any help you can offer. I sort of signed up on a whim and am now freaking out a bit :)
