Event comments:

The only problem I had was trying to get into the pool to do my swim, the volunteer in my lane kept putting his friends in front of me and I had to wait an hour to get into the lane. I had to keep my 4yr old, 2yr old and, my 6 week old kids occupied for an hour so some college kids could swim 20 min /700 yrd!!! Other than swim volunteers I had fun
