Looking for Buzzards Bay Swim results?

Buzzards Bay Coalition organizers had to cancel the event due to inclement weather on Saturday, June 24. The swim will not be rescheduled.

This is the second time in the swim's 24-year history that the event was cancelled due to unsafe weather conditions. However, 353 swimmers still raised $130,000 for clean water.

Donations can still be made through July 8. If swimmers raise a total of $135,000, 10-time Buzzards Bay Swim participant Larry Fish of West Falmouth has pledged to donate an additional $25,000 from his Fish Family Foundation.

Next year's swim is scheduled for Saturday, June 30, 2018. For more information about the Buzzards Bay Coalition, visit savebuzzardsbay.org.
