An opportunity to swim a mile is available on Friday afternoon. Imagine coming home and announcing that you Swam the Mile!
On Friday afternoon, the Scout camps across the lake offer this opportunity for Scouts, Venturers, Explorers and adults from Swift. You will need to be a swimmer and have a buddy. You report for a briefing at 2:45 pm with your buddy tag, ready to go, and have your Mile Swim number marked on your hand. The staff have a line laid out on the lake to which they tie off their canoes. The Mile Swimmers swim up one side of the canoes and back the other. Five times around and you've done it!
If you are interested, visit with the Swift Program Director or Aquatics Director for more details.
