There are a couple of other events organized by masters swimmers in which you may have interest:

1)Saturday March 26th 10 am: Hutcherson YMCA Strong Kids campaign organized by Nick Irving, masters swimmer and awesome Aquatics Director at the Hutcherson YMCA, Pine & Peoria, Tulsa, OK. Help a kid get swimming lessons by participating in your favorite pool event. Choose from 100 x 50s, walking 100 loops in the lazy river, or 100 trips down the slide. Something for everyone. Please see the attached poster for details or email Nick Iriving, nirving@ymcatulsa.org. You DO NOT have to be a YMCA member or a USMS member to participate in this fundraising event.

2) Also on March 26th, 1:30 pm in Okarche, OK, the 'March in Okarche Duathlon'.
