The second annual open water event will be held on August 22, 2009 in Pocomoke City, MD. The concept is an introduction to open water swimming held in a swim meet style. Swimmers will swim distances, in heats of six to eight, of 100, 200 or 400 yards in a square shape of buoys with lane ropes strung between them. Each stroke will be offered as well as individual medleys and relays. We'll also offer a 1/2 mile swim, all in a clean fresh-water pond behind the Lower Shore YMCA.
Visit our website at http://www.pondswim.com for more information and to register.
Please pass along information about the event to your constituents and if you have any questions, please feel free to contact me via email or phone.
Thanks,
Steve Hicks
