IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR SANDY POINT!!!
In speaking with Sandy Point State Park this morning, THE PARK DOES NOT OPEN FOR THE PUBLIC UNTIL 7AM AND THEY HAVE LONG LINES STARTING AT 6AM!!!! This means that if you are a 4.4 Mile swimmer, TAKE THE SHUTTLE!!!!! Your spectator can go over and get in line to get in the park at 7am but YOU should be taken to the Park and Ride shuttle (111 Thompson Creek Rd, Stevensville, MD). 

If parking there is full, go to the Matapeake Elementary/Middle School (671 Romancoke Road) and take one of THOSE SHUTTLES, which will then take you to the Park and Ride, to get on the 4.4 Mile Shuttle. ONLY SWIMMERS CAN TAKE A SHUTTLE TO SANDY POINT!!

 

Shuttles will be continually making the loop (Matapeake Elem/Middle -> Park and Ride -> Libbey's) until 2pm so if you opt to go to lunch at Libbey's afterward (YUM!!!!) please keep that time in mind. 

The LAST SHUTTLE will leave the Park and Ride for the 4.4 Mile Swimmers at 7am. DON'T BE LATE

Don't forget about our FACEBOOK LIVE event tonight at 6:30pm. The url for that is https://www.facebook.com/events/791367842612787?ref=newsfeed  

If you don't have Facebook, we will be posting the video up on YouTube and it should be available tomorrow (Thursday).
