Summer Open Water Swims:

There are a few open water swims around San Diego this summer beginning with the La Jolla Swim Club's Pier to Cove Swim on 30 June.  A link to the event is below:

The swim is ~1.5 miles beginning at the Scripps Pier and ending in La Jolla Cove.  There are separate divisions for those who want to swim with wetsuits/fins/paddles and those who do not.  A few CMA swimmers will be participating, so if you have interest, contact Jane.  

In addition, groups of CMA swimmers occasionally meet up at La Jolla Cove or Shores during the weekends beginning around May to do open water swims.  If you have interest, you can talk to Jane to see if there will be a meet-up during the weekend.
