It’s an extraordinary open-water swimming adventure through the picturesque Hiland Chain of Lakes near Hell, Michigan.

What swimmers are saying...

"...we had one of our best days, of any day, ever.  A day we will reminisce about from time to time. We will try to remember each little detail, each separate leg.  I call it our swimming safari. It was just great, from the tiki lanterns early this a.m., to the aid stations to the lovely finish, you thought of all of the details. You guys really organized a wonderful event (and we've been to quite a few open water events from Chicago to Chesapeake).  Thank you."
-Jon

Learn about our charity partner: North Star Reach

North Star Reach is a camp specially designed for children with life-threatening, serious, and chronic medical conditions. North Star Reach offers these kids the chance to enjoy one of childhood’s most valued traditions: a summer of swimming, climbing, canoeing, arts and crafts, making new friends, and creating lifelong memories.

Swim to the Moon would not be possible without North Star Reach, which serves as a starting location and turn-around point for swimmers. Learn more and consider making a donation!
