New Starting Blocks for Portsmouth Pool
* * * GBM Enews * * *
Request for support: Funds for New Starting Blocks for Portsmouth Pool
Hi Team!
The Portsmouth Indoor Pool is upgrading its aging starting blocks, primarily
funded by generous contributions from the Cannonball and Portsmouth Swim Teams.
We would like to invite you to support this initiative.
GBM will contribute a matching donation alongside GBM members. We would be very
grateful if individual GBM members, particularly those who are regular users of
the Portsmouth pool, would consider making individual donations to this effort,
to be matched up to $500 by a GBM club donation. A small number of members have
already committed to contribute over $200. Our target is to raise a total of
$1,500 from club funds and individual members.
Donations will be made via the non-profit, Save the Indoor Portsmouth Pool,
Inc., which is a 501(c)(3) organization. We understand that any contributions
will be eligible as tax deductible charitable donations.
Thank you!

GBM Summer Events and Challenge
Hi Team!
Summer approaches quickly and with it the long course and open water meet
seasons. We are fortunate to have a number of excellent LC meets and open water
races in easy reach of seacoast swimmers. In the meantime, please support the
JT Clinic on Sunday, May 20, 8-12. The day will include a motivational speech
from the seacoast's very own Olympic swimming legend Jenny Thompson. This is an
opportunity for expert instruction on starts, stroke, turns, technique and
sprints by experienced coaches and Jenny. Sunday is for swimmers age 19 and
over and two of our members, Pete S and Aagje C, will be members of the coaching
team. Further information is available on doverswims.com. Swimmers may
register on the day. Funds raised will support the future of the Dover pools.
NELMSC LCM Champs – Sunday, June 3rd
This year the NELMSC LCM Champs has been moved to our backyard, so let's rally
GBM team for a fun day of LC racing at Harvard's fine Blodgett pool. The meet
is on Sunday, June 3rd. Entries will close when the meet reaches 500 swimmers.
For Meet Info & Online Entry: http://www.meetresults.com/2012/nelmsclcm/
GBM's very own LC meet will be held this year on Sunday July 29th at the Jenny
Thompson pool in Dover. The meet will feature a full program of 50s to 200s,
plus relays, with 400s if time allows. Coach is challenging GBM swimmers to
swim both LC meets, with the aim of establishing race times at the NELMSC
championship and then trying to beat those times at the JT meet after 6 weeks of
LC training. There may be some nifty prizes involved for those who are up for
this challenge!
Upcoming Open Water events
July 14: Nubble Light Challenge, 2.4mi ocean swim
http://www.nubblelightchallenge.com/
July 21: Peaks to Portland, 2.4mi ocean swim
http://www.cumberlandcountyymca.org/p2p
August 18: 7th Annual Swim & Fin Race for Salem Sound http://www.swimandfin.org/
There will be many GBM swimmers competing in these fun and challenging races!
