I will come to the July 18th swim.  I might be away on August 8th but would love to join in the endurance swim.  I have a kayaker!

I am excited!  Thanks for organizing.

The first swim will be on Sunday July 18th from the beach on Phillips Circle on Fairy Lake to Grandview Resort and back. This swim will be 2.5 K.M. in length. We will begin the swim at 8:00 A.M. All swimmers will have to have a canoe or a kayak spot them. Directions: Take Hwy 60 towards Grandview and DeerHurst Resort. Exit at Golden Pheasant Drive (one exit before Grandview Resort). Turn right on Phillips Circle and look for a large orange inner tube marking the beach entrance.

The second swim will be more ambitious and it is for experienced long distance open water swimmers. Date: Sunday August 8th. The swim  will start at the beach next to  Huntsville High School on Brunel Road. We will meet in the parking lot in front of High School. The swim will be a tour of the five islands of Fairy Lake. We will swim to Alice Island and then Antler Island and then to The Twin Sisters, from there we would swim to One Tree Island. We will then stop for a rest and refreshments on One Tree Island.
After the break we will swim back from One Tree Island to the startig point at the beach close to Huntsville High School. This swim is only for more experienced swimmers and the length of the swim is between 5.5 to 6 K.M.

 * All swimmers will have to have a canoe or a kayak spot them.

This is a fabulous opportunity develop and practice your open water skill.

Please let me know if you are interested.
