Eligibility:  This is a USMS sanctioned meet, therefore you must be a member of USMS to swim in the meet. If you are not currently registered, you may register ONLINE (preferred!) at www.MOVYmasters.com or at www.usms.org.  If you are not currently registered for USMS, I recommend waiting till November 1 and you will enjoy USMS member benefits through the end of 2016. Some benefits include a full year subscription to Swimmer magazine, access to meets and other fitness events throughout the year, etc.  Online registration for 2015 USMS membership will also be available at check-in

Rules:  The current USMS rules will govern the conduct of the meet.  Heats will be seeded, slowest to fastest.  Please enter a goal time for accurate seeding. Entries with no times will be seeded in the slowest heats. Men and women of all ages will swim mixed. You might swim next to someone older or younger, man or woman, of approximately the same speed. Results will be
broken out by age group and gender (i.e. Men/Women,
19-24, 25-29, 30-34, 35-39 etc). 
NOTE: Your age for this meet is your age on 11/14/2015.

Awards:  TBD

Entry Fees:  $10.00 meet fee, plus $5 per event. Full-time Student Discount = $10 total (Pay full meet fees as suggested in online meet entry, and then ask at the meet for your Student Refund of event fees you paid over $10.) All late and deck entries are $45.00 and must be entered at check in prior to 1:30. Credit cards are charged to "ClubAssistant.com Events" for this meet.
