Masters Swimmers Help Age-groupers Swim
for Food
As swimmers, we think we know hunger.
We stumble home after practice, open the refrigerator and indulge in
any and everything we can get our hands on to satisfy the hunger
created by a tough workout. However in many of our communities, there
are people who are truly hungry. Anne Clewell of the Berkley Aquatics
Club in New Jersey, helps youth swimmers in her local community
understand this by educating them about community food banks and their
efforts to help feed truly hungry people.

Stroke Clinic at Sussex County YMCA
Bob Hopkins will hold a stroke clinic this
Sunday, November 8th in Conference Room #1 at the Sussex County YMCA
from 2:00 until 3:00 for anyone interested in learning the proper
mechanics of freestyle and backstroke (the long axis strokes). Bob
will show slow motion/stop motion video of two elite level swimmers
and explain each movement that they make while swimming and why that
movement is important. After discussing the proper stroke technique
components, he will describe some skill drills that you can do on your
own to improve your stroke technique. You are then invited to join
the Sussex County YMCA Adult Swim Club in their workout from 3:30 till
4:45 where you can practice what you just learned. There is no cost
for the classroom session. For the workout session, there is no
cost if you are a Sussex County YMCA member or a member of a YMCA more
than 50 miles from the Sussex County YMCA. If not a Y member, you can
purchase a Day Pass for $10 and join the swim workout. Please let Bob
know if you will attend either session so that we can plan
accordingly.

Congratulations to our USMS LCM National Champions and World Record
holders from Indiana University in Indianapolis on August 6-10, 2009!
Laurie DiTommaso, 47, won
the 50 fly, and also lowered the existing World Record of 29.52 to
29.37. Laurie was also second in the 50 breast. Nancy
Steadman-Martin, 55, took first place honors in 4 events (400 free,
200 back, 200 fly, and 400 IM) and finished second in the 200 free.
Nancy's time in the 200 back also set a new World Record.
Steve Hiltabiddle, 43,
grabbed the top spot in the 100 and 200 fly and second in the 50 fly.
Steve's 50 fly (25.73) was lower than existing world record of 25.87,
but he got touched out by Michael Ross. Steve also finished second in
the 50 free. Frank McElroy, 61 won 3 events (200 and 800 free,
and 400 IM) and second in 2 (400 free and 100 fly). Rounding out
our national champions, Jim Dragon, 65, won the 50 fly in 28.69,
missing the world mark by .01. Jim, like Steve, swam faster than
the existing world record (50 breast - 35.30), but got touched out by
Kenneth Frost. Jim was also the runner up in the 50 free.

the 2009 Swimming World Magazine College Conference Carnival.
The event will take place on January 16th and 17th at the Werblin
Recreation Center on Rutgers' Busch Campus. Participating schools
include the University of Florida, the University of North Carolina,
and the University of Richmond. This meet is of particular interest to
the US Masters Swimming community since it will feature special
masters swimmers attempting record breaking swims and there will also
be a luncheon from 12 - 1:30pm, with guest speakers from each of the
four university teams, Kristen Gary of USMS and the Trident
foundation, Janel Jorgensen (silver medallist in 1988) as the head of
the "Swim Across America Foundation" (and also a masters swimmer) and
perhaps Craig Beardsley, a 1980 Olympian who works with Janel.
