Best Swim with FISH Ever!

Swim with FISH 2012 was the Best swim to date with near 100 people in attendance, 15 one mile swimmers and about 8 kid swimmers!  There was plenty of food, live music and we raised $1327 for the Gig Harbor FISH food bank! Not to mention a huge bucket full of food! The tee shirts were the nicest to date incorporating our number 6 day marker icon in the design.

Was this a private swim for members of your community or was it open to anyone?
