Water Safety – Important Information:

After the race, we encourage you to enjoy the beautiful beach! However, please take a moment to learn about the potential dangers of Lake Michigan rip currents. These strong currents can quickly pull swimmers away from the shore and can be life-threatening.

Here are some essential safety tips for Lake Michigan:

Always swim in designated areas where lifeguards are on duty.
Never swim alone.
Be aware of the water conditions and heed any warning flags that are posted.
If you find yourself caught in a rip current, do not panic. Swim parallel to the shoreline until you are out of the current, and then swim back to shore.
