<div>The 2007 USMS registration year is upon Pacific Masters. All club
and individual registrations expire on 31 December. From 1 November,
clubs and individuals can register for 2007. The individual membership
is $35 / year, the same as 2006 and includes a subscription to USMS
Swimmer Magazine, the Pacific Masters newsletter. Membership also
includes a secondary accident insurance policy, borrowing privileges
from the video library and the privilege of participating in any of
our pool and open water events.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>The 2007 individual application is available along with the 2007
Club and Individual Registration instructions and the Frequently Asked
Questions. All the clubs that have registered by 27 December 06 are
listed at the end of this email. If your club is not registered, the
club is not covered by USMS insurance in 2007. Also all swimmers of
the club must be members of USMS for your club to be covered by
insurance.</div>

<div>So far there are 73 Masters teams that have registered (about 60%
of the 119 clubs that registered in 2006). If your club is not on the

<div><font face="Tahoma" size="-1">The Standard Chartered Masters
Swimming Series will stage its first event of the 2007 season with the
Asia Pacific Masters Swimming Meet from 9-11 Feb 2007 in Singapore.
With the support of title sponsor Standard Chartered Bank, we are
looking to roll out a series of masters swimming events to grow local
and regional interest in masters swimming.<br>
</font></div>
<div><font face="Tahoma" size="-1">We would like to extend an
invitation for you to participate / encourage your membership to
participate and assist us in promoting the event to anyone who may be
interested in taking part in masters swimming. We encourage adult
swimmers of all ages and ability to come take part in the spirit of
fitness, fun and friendship. The event takes place a week prior to
Chinese New Year and it will give overseas visitors a chance to come
see the festivities and savour the Chinese New Year atmosphere in
Chinatown.<br>
</font></div>
<div><font face="Tahoma" size="-1">Your help in spreading the word
about Masters Swimming and upcoming events, to friends in Singapore
and around the region would be much appreciated. We'd like to get
participants from the Asia Pacific region to come to Singapore for the
event. We've had interest from Australia, Hong Kong and Taiwan so far
and we're looking to contact swimming enthusiasts from Japan, Korea
and the region to come participate as well. The website is the best
source of information and we will update the site periodically. Please
share the website link with anyone who may be interested.</font></div>
