Imagine Gloria being mixed in with Chic and Sister Sledge also. It went from around 5pm to Midnight.

Scott I hope you listen to this Huge Smash. I didn't Swim but I would have been all in for Weight Lifting. I remember the one Gentlemen that must have really worked out after I left for the last few weeks of Summer of 1983.
