Alcatraz
August 18, 2007

We started out with a beautiful, clear morning that transformed into a windy, choppy swim. The pilots had a tougher time than the swimmers—a big thanks for hanging in there. South End swimmers and pilots joined us for an approximate 9:40 am start with over 100 swimmers. An unexpected early start had all the swimmers scrambling. Good food and a great prize for all.
