Event
2022 SFFD Alcatraz Swim
On October 15, 2022 the SFFD Alcatraz Swim returns after a seven year hiatus! Swimmers will meet at the entrance to Hyde Street Pier at 0700 on the morning of the swim. We will load onto the SFFD Fireboat at 0800 and begin the swim from Alcatraz promptly at 0830.
ALL SWIMMERS ARE WELCOME; wear a speedo, a wetsuit, fins, or floaties....our goal is 100 SFFD members in the water! Those who are interested in swimming, but not a full Alcatraz event, are invited to swim the Aquatic Park Cove. Entrance to swim the event is $100 for SFFD members and includes a swim cap, T-Shirt, food, and refreshments after the swim. All proceeds will benefit the San Francisco Firefighters Cancer Prevention Foundation.
This event is recommended for moderate to strong swimmers. If you are at all worried about your ability, please arrange to have a dedicated safety pilot.
Safety Pilots are in high demand and can participate free of charge. We need your help! Volunteers for the day of the swim are welcome and encouraged. More details will follow. Contact Nick Oxford at nick.oxford@sfgov.org with any questions. See you out there!
