Hi jayson, good to meet you. The site was recommended to me by Rebecca Wear Robinson.
Were working together to educate the world on drowning prevention and I'm trying to do my bit by bringing SwimFin to every bodies attention.
Keep up the great work.

I attended the DC meet in Feb. and another coach "Candess Tucker" told me about this group. I also bought 2 t-shirts and was told to come back later for my change and never got it. It's ok! I'm looking forward in being an active member of this community.

Hi Jayson. =) Really happy to be here.
I heard about your program through OutdoorAfro.com...where I provide content from time to time.
BTW, I'm not only looking for Adventurers that want a multicultural swim experience at camp, but I am always on the lookout for female lifeguards for my program as well....preferably in California...and I do aim for diversity. Kindly let me know how I can do some outreach. =)
Best,
Tracey

I just found you while looking for the results of the Annual Black History Meet. My daughter ( Ophe'lie Loblack- 10) swims for RMSC and participated. She got 3rd place High Point (10 and under). I try to follow a lot of the black swimmers. It is certainly nice to connect here. I like the forum and I think I will spend some time catching up on the blogs. I also will definitely participate in any capacity here.
Thanks for having me.

We've got some local meets coming up. But the next big thing is in North Carolina Memorial Day Weekend. This is our first year as members of USA Swimming so we are afforded the opportunity to travel now. I don't know all the details yet, but I'm looking forward to that meet. Do you know any particulars?

Hi My son's team, Metro Boys and Girls Club of New York, just competed this weekend in the Black History meet. This was our first year and I had a FANTASTIC time. I was in awe of how many of our children performed so well. A couple of parents from our team and I stopped by your table Saturday.
My daughters swam at the Black History Month Meet this weekend. When we took pictures by your sign and display I was asked by someone at your table to post pictures on your site so here I am..:)..also, one of them took and pic of me & my youngest daughter when my battery died on my camera..hope to see it soon!
