Women Swimmin' for Hospicare is a community swim for women ages 18 and over. Early in the morning on August 10, 2024, approximately 300 women will swim across Cayuga Lake, a distance of 1.2 miles. The swimmers will be supported by more than 125 boaters guiding them from the east shore to the Ithaca Yacht Club, where more than 100 volunteers, plus friends and family, will greet them with cheers and congratulations.
How it works
Registration for participants -- swimmers, paddlers, and Go the Distance fundraisers -- opens at 7:00 a.m. on May 8, 2024. (Please note registration for lake swimmers closes when we reach our maximum of 325 lake swimmers).
There is a registration fee for Lake Swimmers, however this fee is applied to your fundraising total.
You can easily create a participant page where you can tell your story and share why you're participating. Share your page with your friends, family, colleagues, and loved ones to ask for their support to help you reach your goal.
All money raised benefits the work of Hospicare. Join us for this spectacular summer tradition!
