I think I'm going to find myself around the San Fran area for the 4th of July -- is there any chance there's an OW race or even fun/community swim in that area (+/- about 75 miles from downtown) to celebrate the holiday? I'll have a car and can drive. I didn't see anything listed for South End Rowing or Dolphin Club, nor on the Pacific Masters site. I'll go swim solo in Aquatic Park if there's nothing organized, but prefer a good 'event' to pass the day with.
If you're in the Bay area prior to July 4, USA Productions is hosting a couple events that might interest you.
The Catfish Crawl South Bay is taking place on June 22 in Morgan Hill, which is about 75 miles south of San Francisco. I did this swim a couple of years ago and it was great! Here's the link: www.usaproductions.org/.../Catfish-Open-Water-Swim
Another option closer to July 4th is the California International Triathlon (www.usaproductions.org/.../California-International-Triathlon), which has an Aquabike event besides the tri. This event takes place on June 30th in Pleasanton, which is a fairly short distance from San Francisco.
