Thank you!!!
I still do not know who or how I got nominated for this prestigious award, but was completely surprised and honored when I heard. I am so proud to be part of such a wonderful group of people and awesome organization. I'm just doing what I love and hope that others will benefit and enjoy the sport as much as I do. Thank you!!

1st Annual Tail's End LCM Master Swim Meet- DANA BROWN represents!!
1st Annual Tail's End LCM Master Swim Meet- In a 15 minute stretch, Dana goes 3:40.20 in 200 LCM Breast, breaking her own state and Dixie Zone records from last month by 5 seconds. It is the 5th fastest All Time in US history! The fastest time by 3 seconds in the country this year. It would've placed 6th on last year's FINA World Rankings! She had a 1 heat break, then broke her 50 back state record from last month by 3 full seconds. Dana also went 45.85 in the 50 Breast, breaking her own state record from last month by 4 full seconds (12th fastest in history in the country for the 65-69 age group) Nice day's work Dana!
