Here's the info for 2011 GLOWS series. Win points (as described in the pdf) by swimming at least two of the seven (one for each state in the Great Lakes Zone) swims. It's gonna hurt this year: the 25k in Morse Reservoir, Noblesville, is Indiana's contribution (though participating in a relay presumably would count):
IN 6-18-2011: 25k, Morse Reservoir, Noblesville
Allegheny 7-9-2011: Search for Monongy, 1.2 or 2.4 miles
OH 7-30-2011: 1 or 2 miles, Edgewater State Park, Cleveland
IL 8-6-2011: 1.2 or 2.4 miles, CIOWS, Evergreen Lake, Hudson, IL
MI 8-13-2011: 1.5 miles, Lake Michigan, Holland, MI
KY 8-13-2011: 0.5, 1.2, 2.4 miles, Cardinal Harbor, Ohio River, Prospect
WI 8-20-2011: 1.2, 2.4 miles, Lake Monona, Madison
Other than a perhaps unavoidable shared date by MI and KY, looks good! Some different venues from 2010 - see more of the countryside. Hope this helps in making summer vacation plans!
