Welcome to an abbreviated, special edition of the Chlorine Chronicles, the semi-regular electronic newsletter of the Metropolitan LMSC.

In this edition, which I promise will be followed shortly by a "full" newsletter, the question is simply: who is going to Cleveland for the LC Nationals? If you are going, please email Maria Drueckhammer at metroreg@hotmail.com.

We would like to get a quick tally of the swimmers from our LMSC so we can band together for fun, fast swims, and camaraderie.

Also, for all of you Metro All-Stars (those of you who paid the extra $4 to be a part of that group), is there one among you who like to volunteer to be the relay coordinator? The Board of Directors has allocated $200 to help to defray the expenses of this "volunteer," so if interested email Maria as well.

And lastly, since those of us who wined and dined beneath the stars on Waikiki after the SC Nationals meet had such a great time, the LMSC Board has also offered to help defray the cost of an LMSC social gathering. Party on in Cleveland.

More news coming shortly, but in the mean time make sure to check out http://www.metroswim.org.

Thanks!
