Taken from from the August 2007 issue of Swimming World Magazine.
The first Masters swim meet "east of the Rockies" was held 35 years ago on April 1, 1972 at the Wilton YMCA in Wilton Connecticut. It attracted 60 Masters swimmers. The host club, Connecticut Masters, was chartered by the AAU with "a couple dozen" members. Today, Connecticut membership has risen to more than 400.
