The 5th annual Atlantic Lifeboat Swim will take place in Oranmore next month to raise money for saving lives on the water.
The event, organised by Atlantic Masters Swim Club is being held in aid of the Galway RNLI Lifeboat Station and Oranmore Maree Coastal Search Unit.
All proceeds from the event go directly to these two worthy causes. To date, the Atlantic Lifeboat Swim has raised €20,000 to help them in their work.
This year’s event will take place on Saturday, July 1 at Rinville Pier in Oranmore.
Entries are now open for swimmers who would like to Try-A-Swim (400m) or challenge themselves to a 2km swim in this unique part of Galway Bay.
“We are grateful for the generous support of business to date and welcome any new business who would like to support the event,” Fergal Madden, Chairperson of Atlantic Masters said.
More details of the event and how to register are available at www.atlanticmasters.ie early registration is encouraged as places will fill fast.
