Hi all, Please click on the below link for the open water swim calendar for 2018. Sheet 1 has the calendar and Sheet 2 has the leaders list Open Water Calender and leader list 2018This calendar is subject to change and a post will go up on the forum in advance of each swim with all details on that swim session For these swims to be successful we rely heavily on our members to volunteer to be leaders. The only requirements for a leader is that you are comfortable in the open water and have some experience in the open water. Speed is not a requirement. If you have any availability can you please pop your name down on the leaders sheet and ill contact you closer to the time Important dates to note:Saturday May 5th - Provisional date for Intro to open water swimming session - this will heavily depend on water temperatures which currently are still looking very cold Wednesday June 6th - A Race where each person is given a time penalty based on their ability with the aim of making it a level playing feel with a busy finish line Sunday July - As above keep an eye on the forum for updates and if you have any questions just ask below Ian

Hi Ian
I’ve signed up as leader for the next two open water sessions in Seapoint. I joined Belpark in January through the NTT program, but come from a predominantly swimming background
Can’t wait to get the session going

Hi All,
Just a heads up that we have to cancel this weekends introduction to open water swimming. The water temperatures are still too low to allow us to safely run the session. We will aim to reschedule this session and I'll post here with a plan shortly
Thanks Ian

Hi Sudha - Yeah should be going ahead alright, unless the weather really turns nasty. Check your mail for info on the Event Register to see how to sign up for all new events. Thanks, Conal
