Saturday, August 4th Disney Family Movies "Play At The Next Level" Sweepstakes Summer Games Update: It's summer; everyone in the pool! Or at least Team USA Swimming (on Twitter: @USA_Swimming) in the Aquatics Centre in London on Friday, August 3rd, because Team USA had another golden day of swimming:  Baltimore's own superstar Michael Phelps (on Twitter: @MichaelPhelps) captured his 21st medal -- and 17th career gold! --  in the 100 meter butterfly, his final individual race of his Summer Games career. In the women's 200 meter backstroke Missy Franklin (on Twitter: @FranklinMissy), the 17-year-old swimmer, won her third gold of these Summer Games, and set a world record: 2:04:06. Missy's been dedicating her wins to her hometown of Aurora, Colorado. And Katie Ledecky, the new pride of Bethesda, Maryland, at the ripe old age of 15, swam from out of nowhere to win gold in the women's 800 meters --  all while being a high school sophomore in her very first international competition. Team USA Swimming --  they've made quite a splash across the pond!

For today, Saturday, August 4th, say it with me and get super psyched:  #London2012 #SuperSaturday! 25 gold medals will be given out, the most of any day at the Summer Games. Followed along all day on Twitter with the hashtag #SuperSaturday. And if that's not super enough, here comes the London 2012 debut of Jamaica's Usain Bolt (on Twitter: @usainbolt). #London2012 #SuperSaturday!
