Swim with a Mission, Bristol, NH
Participants that swim in four of the five USMS-sanctioned New England open water swims will earn a commemorative cap and other items provided by SwimOutlet.com, the leading online swim product merchant. To qualify for the award, a swimmer must be a full-time member of USMS. Most of these events require either full time membership or participants must pay a $20 one-event fee for each swim. Becoming a full-time member is less expensive than the per-event option.
One of the MBCC events is on the same date as the Charles River Swim, however MBCC offers a virtual option. To qualify for the award, a swimmer only needs to participate in four of the five events. If for some reason one of the events is cancelled, then the series wil be three out of four. You do not need to sign up for the series separately. If you are a USMS member you are automatically enrolled when you sign up for an individual event.
U.S. Masters Swimming is a national nonprofit that provides membership benefits to nearly 60,000 Masters swimmers across the country. USMS encourages adults to enjoy the health, fitness, and social benefits of swimming by providing more than 2,000 adult swimming programs and events across the country, including open water and pool competitions.
