35 to Swim Round Moville’s Lighthouse on Saturday
Lighthouse Swim
Every year it is getting bigger. The first year Paedar McKevitt wanted to get 100 swimmers to go round the lighthouse and back. I thought that was a bit ambitious. I think there were about 12. There were about 19 last year. This year there are approximately 35.
It’s growing!
One expects that in 3 or 4 years he’ll have his 100.
Charity Event
It’s a great event – and all for charity.
This year’s event will take place from 11:30am on Saturday at Moville Pier along Quay Street. The swim will start sometime between 11:– to 12:30 depending on the tides.
The temperature is predicted to be 21 degrees with light cloud and sunny intervals. My daughter was in the water yesterday and said it was pretty good.
Come down and watch and cheer the swimmers on. It is getting bigger every year.
Maybe you could do it next year.
