OSS Swim the Thames 2012 - Dates for your Diaries
At the risk of reducing the spontaneity and the
rather happy go lucky
approach to our swimming we have set dates for the 2012 season
of the OSS Swim
the Thames. Don't know exactly where we will be swimming on
these dates yet but
these are the dates we will be swimming on.
Full details will be sent in the normal way, a couple of
weeks prior to each
swim, via Facebook events, OSSOxon / OSSRATS mail list and the
OSS website. Gives us
flexibility to vary our pace to suit
the conditions and how we feel on the day.

We've attached a calendar and list of dates that
you can print and stick to the fridge with
the dates on.
We have earmarked 5 weekends for camps so we can
have two days swimming and
a night time dip. How
this works will
depend on where we are on that dates and if there is a suitable
site so we will
play this by ear and if we don’t manage all days at least hope
to get three
camps this year.
For the mid summer swims we’re trying the idea of
a late afternoon / early
evening swims followed by a pub dinner as an alternative to
morning swims. We
can always change to the day time again if we decide that we
don’t like the
idea after all.
Pencil these dates in your diaries and look out
for the individual
announcements with full details nearer the time.

the River Bank
