Liquid Assets - New England Swimming, LANES is the Boston based swim team for the New England gay and lesbian community and their friends. Our mission is to foster acceptance in a healthy and friendly environment through sports and competition. We also wish to provide a social venue to meet people with similar desires and goals. Team members span a whole range of abilities from avid competitor to the fitness swimmer. Some people have been swimming since high school while others are relatively new to the sport. You should have some basic familiarity with master swimming. If you are new to swimming or have not swum in the past, our link pages point out other swimming places that specialize in courses for beginners. Not sure about swimming with a team? Check our Frequently Asked Questions for common concerns. We have several, one-hour practices each week. Our workouts are coached in a Masters’ style environment which focuses on interval and stroke training. We occasionally sponsor swim meets. Many of our members also swim at other teams' meets held mostly over North America (including Canada) and some international locales (like the Gay Games in Sydney and IGLA Championships). We also have a strong presence each year at the Provincetown Harbor Swim for Life, a fund raiser which supports Cape health services and PWA charities. |
