FRIDAY NIGHT SWIM FIGHTS: Informal, grassroots adult swim meets. On deck registration only. $5 for swimmers and spectators. Proceeds benefit after-school programming at the Boys & Girls Club. We'll run four individual events and two relays per night. Max two individual swims per swimmer. Relays built by lottery to promote fun and getting to know each other. Top three men and women of individual events will swim finals - same night. Open warm up from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. Hope to be done before 9:00. After party at Cappy's Hillside Café immediately after - about 500 yards away. Two Fridays are planned. If it catches on, we'll add more Fridays in the future.
