Hello, Swimmers!!!

FIRST OFF: Don't forget the TMSC Holiday Party on Saturday, December 12th, 7 PM. Don & Nancy Nelson's house, 2605 E. 66th Pl. Contact me if you need more info.

NEXT.....I'm pleased to announce there is a new swim coach in town! Jason Sauer was hired by Tulsa Public Schools to replace the retiring high school swim coach, Phil Brougher. Jason's first official day on the job was November 30th.

What does this mean to YOU, the adult fitness swimmer, triathlete, competitive swimmer? Jason will also take over the Tulsa Master Swim Club workouts at BTW. The schedule will be slightly different from previous months. Please see below.

Jason is a certified USA Swimming coach and has coached all levels of swimmers, including masters swimmers & triathletes. His great passion is promoting swimming & swim education to under served areas. He will start a USA Swimming age group club at BTW in the near future. Please visit his website, www.swim201.com, for more information about Jason and his program.
