I'm starting this thread as a way for people to check if there is going to be an open water swim at second beach in Middletown RI, any given day. We do these swims from June 15 to November 15, usually on Tues and Thurs. We also sometimes do an early morning swim on the weekend, from 1st beach to 2nd beach, around Easton's Point, about 1.9 miles. Starting in June I'll be posting the plans and the reports. I usually send out emails, but this won't require an email list, and anyone who is interested will be able to check. Who knows, maybe others who swim at 2nd beach and have access will chime in and organize their own swim dates using the forum!
Aloha
Mike.
Hey swimmers. Unless someone tells me otherwise there haven't been any more Sachuest beach Ocean Swims lately. (At least not from our gang.) So we wrap it up. This was the best season ever, and I'm quite grateful for the group who makes it now possible for me to go swimming just about whenever I want, at the "best place to swim in the world." My plan has ultimately reached its goal, a regular group of ocean swimmers at second beach. What was a lark is now a habit. Those Sunday morning first to second beach swims are etched in my mind like cases of fine wine, savored and remembered. Tuesday through Friday 430 swimmers (non-wetsuit) and 530 swimmers (wetsuit) worked very well, like a machine almost.
If you are in Rhode Island between May and October and want to swim with this group you can email MikeGarr@usms.org or send a PM via the USMS Discussion Forums. We keep a regular email list during the season.
