Mavericks Receive Two National Awards!

Paul and Margie Hutinger were At Large Delegates at the US Aquatic Sports Convention, in Atlanta, GA, in September. Although Paul has been a Masters swimmer, since its inception in 1970, this was his very first convention, and Margie's tenth.

The Hutingers are the Editors of their popular club newsletter, Maverick Lane Lines. During a House of Delegate meeting, they accepted the award for the 2008 USMS newsletter of the year, for the most outstanding LMSC or club newsletter. It was selected from over 300 USMS club and LMSC newsletters. In the past ten years, it has ranked in the top five or ten, six of those years.

Paul was the recipient of the 2008 June Krauser Communications Award, which is presented annually to an individual, or group, whose communicative efforts have contributed to the growth, improvement, or success of USMS.
