To qualify for this award you must be a full-time member of USMS. Most of these events require either full time membership (which costs $75 for the full year and comes with many additional benefits) or you must pay a $20 one-event fee for each swim. This makes becoming a full-time member less expensive than paying four separate one-event fees!

* Note: One of the MBCC events is on the same date as the Charles River Swim, however MBCC offers a virtual option.

You do not need to sign up for the series separately. If you are a USMS member you are automatically in the hunt! |
