"To the Bridge & Back" is a new open water swim in Richmond, VA. It's late in the year - October 13, 2012- so it gives you plenty of time to prepare and doesn't conflict with most of the major swims out there.
Entry fees are low, especially if you register with your own kayaker.

They are very sensitive about their swimming skills. You must not poke them, make fun of their prodigious gear bags, wetsuits in pools, mindless laps with no sets ("Il Garbagio"), etc.
I also got in trouble for telling them they look ridiculous wearing a wet suit in a pool only to be told it was a "necessary" part of training. Training for what, I'm not sure.
God forbid you tell them that flip turns make them better swimmers.
Are you really not gonna wear a wet suit? I can't be the lone wolf out there ensconced in neoprene I guess.
