Thanks stupid people and lawyers...

It appears Las Vegas 10K registration delayed because new policies and $1000-1800 dollar fees to cover insurance...look for open water events to disappear. usopenwaterswimming.org/SanctionChanges.htm http://www.lv10k.com/

  • our ED was able to find one insurer that could write a policy for USMS that included open water events. Thanks for your explanation, Mike. Forgive my ignorance on these matters, but is it necessary to have a single insurer for both types of events? Can't USMS have one insurer for pool meets and another for OW events? They seem to be so different. I understand that organizations are not people (though some might disagree...but I digress...) but I don't have to have the same insurer for my car, my house and my health. Or is it a matter of cost, being much more expensive to insure them separately?
