Sanddal, who hails from Helena, Montana, is competing in nine swimming events.

A memorial service will be held this spring, once the wonderful flowing water, flowers and grasses return to the Montana mountains Charlotte loved so much. It seemed that Sands’ Boston Calling performance was destined to work out regardless of the roadblocks she faced on the way there. Just minutes after her set concluded and the crowd dispersed, a severe weather warning led to the evacuation of the Harvard Athletic Complex along with a three hour delay. As her set continued, audience engagement only intensified in a testament to Sands’s impressive songwriting and vibrant onstage presence. Aside from a few hardcore fans who came equipped with signs and memorized lyrics, many in the audience were new to Sands’ music. However, the artist proved her musical prowess to new and old fans alike as she won the crowd over.

Sanddal will have competed in nine events by the time the Games conclude Oct. 15. Sanddal employs a technique many swimmers use — on either their arm or thigh, they create in ink a sort of grid that lists the event they’re swimming, as well as the heat and lane to which they’ve been assigned. At the urging of a friend, she jumped in the pool, and her first trip to the top of the podium came at the Montana Senior Games when she swam against — herself.
