On his last visit to the Fort Lauderdale, before his death, the great George Haines parting words to our staff were: "You know, this really belongs in Santa Clara." That was the inspiration for leaders of the City to contact us several years ago and now his wish will soon become a reality. With a bright future assured, you can help make swimming history by renewing or  joining ISHOF as a member. Your support will help us while we await the completion of our new home in Santa Clara. If you join or renew at the $50 or more level, you will receive a $25 dollar gift card for SWIMOUTLET.COM. One of our great corporate partners. To learn more about ISHOF membership and

Sun Moon Lake Swim
On Sunday, September 20, 2015, several members of the ISHOF staff, Laurie, Meg, and Marcia, were lucky enough to be able to be part of a group that attended the Sun Moon Lake Swim in Southern Taiwan with one of the swim's original founder's, ISHOF Selection Committee and FINA Member, Morrie Chang.
The race, in its 33rd year, had 20390 swimmers. It has become a favorite event in Taiwan and is known as the Sun Moon Lake International Swimming Carnival. The race takes place in Sun Moon Lake, the largest fresh water lake in Taiwan. The race is 3 km and every participant must use some type of flotation device. There are all levels of swimmers, including a handicapped group.
The race is a spectacular sight to behold and quite an event to be a part of.
