With the huge enthusiasm within the club at present, we are going to start our Open Water Swim Sessions and Aquathons at the Dock Beach, Kinsale for club members a little earlier this year.
First up will be New to Open Water Swimming sessions and an Aquathon for more experienced club members on the 27th May. New to open water sessions will be at 6:30pm and 7pm with the aquathon at 7:30pm
We will then alternate the Aquathons with Open Water Swims for Experienced club members every second week. The New to Open Water sessions will be every week until everyone who wishes to attend these sessions has had a chance.
All sessions will need to be pre-registered, with limited numbers available.
