Some of this nation's best long distance masters swimmers will be challenged by Morse Reservoir on Saturday July 19, 2008.

The Inaugural 2008 25K USMS National Championship (U.S. Masters Swimming), sponsored by TYR, will cover 15.5 miles. Swimmers will take the plunge at the South Harbour Clubhouse & Beach and will swim north towards the bridge on Little Chicago Road; rounding the bay at Little Chicago Road, they will swim back to SH Beach to complete the 3.1 mile (5K) loop. Four more laps around this course will determine who prevails as National Champion. South and North Harbour boaters will have ready access to their piers & the main body of the lake. Spectators may watch and cheer for the swimmers from docks, boats or from the viewing area at South Harbour Beach.

For more information or to volunteer, please contact the Race Director by email, dsidner@gmail.com.
