The Southern Oregon swims at Applegate Lake were held July 16 & 17, in Ruch, Oregon, with Andy Gramley the meet director. The weather was beautiful; what more could a person ask. It was a weekend filled with great swimming and with great fellowship!
Swims were 2500 meter, 5000 meter and 10,000 meter (all within the 10,000 meter swim); 1500 meter; and a fun 3 x 500 meter Pursuit Relay. The 10,000 meter swim was the National Championship, and the 1500 meter swim was the Association Championship. Then there was the Pursuit Relay, which always has a lot of spirit and excitement.
