Donner Lake Swim Support  August 9th at 7am

Details

Once again the Donner Lake Swim will again happen on August 9th at 8am. But they are asking for help from all paddlers with the safety at the swim. Paddlers wishing to spend a day on Donner Lake assisting swimmers should show up before 7am to drop off your boats and THEN find parking. There is a safety meeting before the swim starts and you must attend that. Once the race is over there will be a free lunch for all helpers. You will also have free access to the lake at each end and lots of options for what to do with the rest of your day in the Truckee / Tahoe area. It is a fun way to spend your day and helping swimmers is always a necessity on that lake. A couple of tips!! DO NOT BE FRONT OF THE SWIMMERS at the start. They are much faster than you and your boat. Also ALWAYS give you bow to swimmers. Not your side. They may flip you!!
So again PLEASE help if you can, it is a fun day and yes it starts early but the sun is already up and it will be a nice day of civic duty!!!
