Places to Swim
Among other benefits, most notably the privilege to compete and
socialize in any Masters events and meets, membership with SLAM
includes insurance protection provided through United States Masters
Swimming (USMS). Each workout location sets its own cost structure and
policy for admittance. Certain workout locations require a SLAM
membership to attend because of the reliance on the USMS insurance
protection afforded by the SLAM membership. At these “Official
SLAM Workout Location”, ALL participants MUST be SLAM members
otherwise the insurance coverage is NULL and VOID for ALL participants
if even just ONE participant is not a SLAM member. Most other workout
locations provide their own “in-house” insurance protection
and don’t rely on the USMS insurance policy. While a SLAM
membership is not required at these workout locations, many of the
participants in these programs are members of SLAM and, therefore, SLAM
attempts to maintain a list of these workout locations as a courtesy to
the St. Louis Area swimming community at large.
USMS maintains at "Places-to-Swim" page for individual facilities to update practice dates and times. That web site is http://www.usms.org/placswim/placswimform.php?LMSCID=22
While “Official SLAM Workout Locations” are maintained by
SLAM on the USMS web site, SLAM relies on all other workout location to
maintain that own information accurately, including a contact person
for those seeking additional information. If a Workout Location would
like to petition SLAM to become an “Official SLAM Workout
Location”, please write to Mary Pohlmann.
