SLAM PRESIDENT’S MONTHLY NEWS – Patrick Sullivan

 

July, 2024

Our Saluki workout group in Carbondale, IL is hosting the Ed and Ruth Shea Challenge Classic (Long-Course Meters) on Saturday, July 13th. It is paper-entry only, payable by check only; the link to print the form is here. Entries received after 7/6/24 must pay the deck entry amount. I am already registered and I hope you will register too.

If any workout group has any events coming up, please message me and SLAM will help promote it.

Second, we have updated our website, swimslam.org. Please check it out. We are continuing to update it, too.

Spring Nationals: SLAM had 21 swimmers participate. We won 42 medals! SLAM swimmers won 9 National Championships, please join me in congratulating Larry Good (M90-94 age group) in the 100 & 200 IM, and the 100 & 200 Breast; Clay Kolar (M75-79) in the 200 & 400 IM; Jason Owen (M40-44) in the 400 IM; and Mary J Woehler (F65-69) in the 200 IM and 200 Back. We are all so proud of Larry, Clay, Jason and MJ, and all the other SLAM swimmers that participated at Nationals. Personally, it was great getting to know the other SLAM swimmers and cheering them on. Out of 327 clubs that participated, SLAM placed 23rd overall (SLAM women placed 27th, and SLAM men placed 25th)!
