FRESNO SHORT COURSE YARDS MEET
November 7th is the date for the Fresno Short Course Yards meet. The
meet starts at 1 PM so there is plenty of time to drive down from
the bay area. This was the venue of the 2009 US Masters Swimming
Short Course Yards National Championships. You can still use your
"fun" swim suits at this meet.
