Swim Program Rules
1. Club scheduled swims are restricted to club members
only.
2. Swimmers are required to wear fluorescent orange caps
on all scheduled swims.
3. For out-of cove swims, swimmers must be members in good
standing with club dues current, $40 swim fees paid, and
a current PMS card on file. In-cove swims are free and open
to all members.
4. New members are not eligible to swim in scheduled out-of-cove
swims for six months from their membership start. However,
if one successfully completes the 100-mile swim or 40-mile
Polar Bear swim before their six months are up, they
can participate in out-of-cove swims.
5. Swimmers must be in attendance at briefing prior to each
swim in order to participate.
6. Swim sign-up sheets are posted two weeks prior to each
swim.
7. Time limits are imposed and enforced for all swims.
8. All club boats are reserved for scheduled swims.
Additional qualifications for Alcatraz and Golden
Gate Swims
9. In-town members must successfully complete three
swims and pilot or help on at least two others.
10. Out-of-town members (those residing 100+ miles from
the club)
must have successfully completed two of the last three club
scheduled
Alcatraz and/or Golden Gate swims or meet Rule 9 above.
