USA Swimming Foundation Fantasy Camp Now a U.S. Masters Swimming Sanctioned Event

The USA Swimming Foundation Fantasy Camp is now a U.S. Masters Swimming sanctioned event and a star-studded weekend of swim fan fun. Open to swimmers of all ages and abilities, the schedule is jam-packed with technique training, nutritional education, out-of-the-pool social activities and more.

The USA Swimming Foundation has worked tirelessly to build the support staff to cater to participants’ every need.  With U.S. Masters Swimming onboard, the Fantasy Camp will be that much greater! Rob Butcher, U.S. Masters Swimming Executive Director, said:

USMS Logo“Swimming and learning from legends such as Rowdy Gaines, Janet Evans, Mel Stewart, Garrett Weber-Gale, and Ricky Berens while Olympic coach David Marsh provides feedback would be a dream come true for any swimmer. Having swam in the Olympic Training Center, it is truly a unique, once in a lifetime experience.”

If your schedule permits and you want to have a good time with great swimming friends, I hope you join us!
