Blue Mind Meet Up Open Water Swim
Off Beat Bikes and Mountain Yoga Kinlochleven present a special FREE Fort William Mountain Festival Fringe Blue Mind Community Swim. We aim to raise money for Surfers Against Sewage, a grassroots environmental charity, dedicated to the protection of the ocean, waves, beaches and wildlife.
We will be collecting money on the day; any donations are very welcome. Cosy up afterwards with FREE HOT CHOCOLATE around the fire at Wetherspoons.
Blue Mind is the idea that being on, in or near the water is good for our wellbeing - both physically and mentally. So, whether you're a champion swimmer or a newbie or just fancy coming along for the craic you're welcome. Festival visitors are very welcome to join us.
Time: 9am
