How do you know if you have a knack for Open Water swimming? Answer: swim in an open water race and find out. Every Junior team swimmer should try it at least once. Some will hate it, most really like it.

If you want to be a lifeguard for any of the Town of Brookhaven beaches, you will have to do daily open water swims too.

If you are only swimming on Friday and Saturday at Sr Mets that same weekend, you can still compete in Open Water Champs too on Sunday. E-mail Coach Peter to sign up.

Some Novice A swimmers may be ready for this meet too. If you like to do this race, ask your Novice coach to see if you are ready and than e-mail Coach Peter.

Parents must fill-in and sign the Open Water Championships entry form for each swimmer and give it to Coach Barry or Coach Peter by Saturday June 14

Entry fees will be deducted from swimmer's meet escrow account
