The USMS 6K Open Water National Championships were held at beautiful Lake Water Valley in Windsor, Colorado. Please click here to read the wrap up. Photos are located on facebook. Results will be on the USMS site soon, and are also located at http://usopenwaterswimming.org/usms6K.htm. COMSA would like to thank Karen Reeder of Air Force Aquatic Masters and her team of volunteers for hosting a fabulous National Championship event and for representing us so well!

From Karen Reeder:
I would like to thank COMSA, its leadership, swimmers and volunteers for supporting this championship. The 6K would not have been successful without this support. One example of many was about 10 days out from the race, I got word that our medical safety boat had engine problems and would not be ready for the event. Within 6 hours of notifying the COMSA community, I had another boat lined up. The Colorado swimming community is a wonderful group of people who gladly give of their time, energy and talent and I am proud to be a member of this group. Thanks to all who assisted wtih this event.
