Description

Join us for one more open water swim meetup! This event is hosted by SHEcoast Multisport, and is for registered members only

Looking for more swim buddies? Join our swim meetup to meet other local open water swimmers on the team. We all know that open water swimming should be done with at least one buddy. So come out and meet other swimmers to find some friends, exchange contact info and make plans to meet up to swim! Already have swim buddies? Come meet some more friends to add to your group, or come for the group open water swim experience with the additional safety of lifeguards on the water.

Please note, this event is NOT a swim clinic. While there will be lifeguards on paddleboards, our primary goal is helping to keep the swimmers safe and helping to connect the swim community, so there will not be a clinic portion at this event. 

Personal swim buoys are REQUIRED for this event. You will not be allowed to get in the water without one. You can purchase one at the link below with code SHECOAST20 for 20% off. https://www.blueseventy.com/collections/accessories/products/buddy-bag
