I am interested in organizing a couple of endurance swims this summer on Fairy Lake.
*One swim will be from the beach on Golden Pheasant Drive on Fairy Lake to Grandview Resort and back. This swim would be 2.5 K.M. in length.
* The second swim will be more ambitious and it is for experienced long distance open water swimmers. The swim will start at the beach next to Huntsville High School on Brunel Road. The swim will be a tour of the islands of Fairy Lake. We will swim to Antler Isand and then to The Twin Sisters, from there we would swim to One Tree Island.
From one tree island we will swim 200 meters to the local beach on Golden Pheasant Drive for lunch.
After lunch we will swim back to the start 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.
I am thinking of both swims taking place in July.
