Pacific Masters
Open Water Clinics -
Sunday, June 22
Pacific Masters is putting on two great clinics this Sunday: Open Water 101 for the brand new ow swimmer; and Open Water 201 for those with experience. These clinics are led by some of the best open water swimmers in our area. They feature dry-land talks, in-water drills and a 1/2 mile swim.
We know from experience that swimmers are nervous about venturing into open water for the first time. The clinics with their encouraging and engaging instructors make swimmers feel supported and safe. In the water, the swimmers are with their instructors...and we over staff the lifeguards, so swimmers always feel comfortable.
Everyone must be pre-registered. There is no clinic-day registration. To register today, contact Clinic Director: Glenda Carroll, [email protected], or 415-454-6327
Volunteers show up: 6:30am
Time for swimmers: 8-11am
Check-in: 7:30am

The USMS Coaches Committee exists to educate and support the coaches of masters teams. We have conference calls each month to help us exchange ideas and work toward our goals. One of which is to improve communication with all our coaches across the U.S. By sharing the minutes of our meeting, we can give you some insights into the projects we are working on and goals we are working toward.

The 2014 USMS High Performance Camp dates are Aug 23-28 and will again be held at the beautiful Greensboro Aquatic Center in Greensboro, NC. Applications are now being accepted and close on May 24th. Complete information can be found at the USMS website. We had a terrific group of swimmers from all over the country at last year's camp, and we'd love to see more Pacific Masters swimmers at this year's camp.
