New Hampshire has lost 92 service members since Sept 11, 2001 in the Global War On Terror. This video is a special tribute to honor those fallen service members who bravely fought and selflessly gave their lives serving our country.
For our 2021 Swim With A Mission events, we will be honoring these service members who paid the ultimate sacrifice for our country. Every registered swimmer will be paired with one of the 92 fallen NH soldiers. We will be providing each swimmer with background information on their service member upon registration. Our goal is for swimmers to help keep their memory alive by thinking about them while training and preparing for SWAM, and then to swim in their honor on race day. We will also be providing all registrants with personalized bracelets of their fallen heroes. We hope that everyone will keep this special momento close during the swim, kayak, paddle or while taking on the SEAL Team Challenge. All event proceeds and fundraising efforts go to organizations that support impactful veteran related causes.
Swim With A Mission is a 501(c)(3) non-profit that raises funds to support impactful Veteran service organizations locally, regionally and nationally. SWAM's keystone event normally takes place at Wellington State Park, on beautiful Newfound Lake, in Bristol, NH, the cleanest lake in the Northeast U.S.A. An incredible day of swim races, competition, live military demonstrations, music, food, and more. Last year’s event drew over 4,000 attendees.
