2008 US Open
June 29 - August 2, 2008
At the September 2008 PVS Board Meeting travel assistance requests were considered for the swimmers who
had competed in individual events (not to include time trials) at the US OPEN, July 29-Aug. 2, 2008 in Minneapolis, MN. The amount of travel funds set aside for this meet was $3750.00, with a cap of $250.00 per swimmer. The requirements were 4 events in sanctioned PVS meets between 04/01/2008 and the meet entry deadline (LC Season).
Seven requests were received before the PVS deadline of Sept. 02, 2008. Because it was noted in Sept. that more requests (appeals) were being made for this meet, decisions were deferred to the October 2008 Board Meeting. Subsequently two more names. At the October 2008 Board Meeting all nine received requests were granted for a total pay out of $2,250.00.
