WHAT: In its first annual event, the Boise swim and triathlete community is banding together to “Make Waves” to fight cancer. Cancer affects us all, and organizations like Fred Hutch are leading groundbreaking research to eliminate this disease which causes so much human suffering and death. They need our help to fight back! Join us for a fun & inspiring event to raise funds to cure cancer.
We are bringing an open water swim to an indoor pool! The course will be marked with open water buoys in the 50-meter pool for a 1.2-mile swim, .5-mile swim, and fun inflatable relay races. Water aerobics will also be available.
