Protect local waterways at the 2025 Swim for Grand Traverse Bay

Registration is open for the 2025 Swim for Grand Traverse Bay.

It’s a two-mile, open water swim event open to swimmers of all levels who are 18 or older. Registration fees along with swimmers fundraising will go to support the Watershed Center’s efforts to protect rivers, lakes, wetlands, and beaches throughout the Grand Traverse Bay Watershed.

“We’re all trying to protect and preserve the water. And the reason why we all live here really is the bay and the fantastic water that we have. We wanted to hold an event that got people out into that water and helped them experience it in a way that not a lot of people have done before. So the swim is our way of bringing people together in the water that we are all working to protect,” said Christine Crissman, Watershed executive director.

This year the swim will held in Suttons Bay. You can sign up here.
