WaveMakers: You may only pick up your own WaveMaker prize, and only if your fundraising has reached $1,000 on the day of the swim.

BALTIMORE "GET READY FOR A MILE" TRAINING: Starting June 4th, every Tuesday and Wednesday from 6-7 PM, we will be offering coaching for folks who have some swim experience who want to train for the mile. You must be registered for the Baltimore Open Water or Pool swim in order to attend. Email Annie Applegarth or Amy Nelson for questions or more information.

If you have participated in the training previously, we ask that you don’t join us until June 20 or 21, so that new swimmers can get their feet wet!
