Have you considered coming to morning masters, but talked yourself out of if because you assume that the lanes are crowded? Well, they’re not. Since we moved inside to Centennial, Gold and Silver lanes have typically had 3 or 4 swimmers. Bronze and Iron lanes have usually only had 2 swimmers each.
If you’ve gotten out of the habit of swimming in the morning, maybe you should give it a try again. There’s plenty of room.
There will be an “all hands on deck” meeting in support of the pending ballot issue for building a new pool and ice center in Longmont.
WHEN: Wednesday, September 18, 2019, 6:30pm – 8:30pm
WHERE: Longmont Senior Center Gym, 910 Longs Peak Avenue
This is the building on the south side of Roosevelt Park (not the Memorial Building that’s on the east side of the park).
Discussion will cover the timeline and plans. For more information:

Just a reminder that there is no Master’s Swim workout on Labor Day, Monday, September 2. After Labor Day, we are back to our normal, indoor schedule.
See you at the pool!
While going through some old papers, I came across a heat sheet for the Friday morning session for short course nationals of 1974. My family had moved to Dallas the previous summer, and the host pool, Loos Natatorium, was not far from my home. Although I was a solid “B” swimmer at the time, I’d swum on my team’s 11-12 400 free relay at TAGS in this pool just a few weeks prior. (We finished 3rd, coming out of lane 8.)
My mom thought it would be a good idea to go watch a session or two. The annotations on the program are hers. She marked DQs, scratches, and false starts (“FS”). I haven’t been able to decode her generous use of *s.
Friday prelims session: 200 fly, 200 breaststroke, 100 back, and 800 free relay
As you read the times, consider the following:
Here’s a gentle reminder that we are moving inside earlier than usual. This Monday morning, August 12 – (i.e. tomorrow) we are INSIDE at CENTENNIAL!
Noontime masters and Saturdays remain outdoors until after Labor Day.
