We had only seven swimmers this AM which was one of the lowest counts we have had in months, but there is a an interesting paradox. The colder the water the higher percentage of swimmers swimming without wetsuits. At 63 degrees, today six swimmers swam without wetsuits and only one with. I’m not sure how to interpret this finding (perhaps it means cold water swimming causes brain damage that makes you think you can swim without a wetsuit).

This is a great fundraiser idea benefiting Gene who is battling pancreatic cancer. Donate $10 or more and get a cool “I survived Lucky’s Lake Swim License plate holder” You must be on the wall of fame to take advantage of this offer. Just put your money in the jar and take a plate holder. This is located on the table next to the hot tub. Thanks to Dave for coming up with this idea and acting on it!

A shout out to Sinje from Sweden who has been joining us the last week. She is complaining about the warm water in the lake. (she normally swims in lake Siljan Swenden’s 3rd largest lake. She swims at 9pm so she can watch the sunset – water temp 50 degrees) She is trying to get in 25 crossings to score the white caps before she returns to Sweden.
