Dear Friends,

The STB Swim is back for 2025. This is a milestone year for me…my 25th time participating in the 2-mile open water swim across Narragansett Bay’s East Passage. With more people than ever enjoying all that Narragansett Bay has to offer...I hope this will be a banner year for fundraising. Thank you for joining me in this effort.

This year we, Team NAVY Newport, are excited at the prospect of a friendly challenge with Team Army. We haven’t quite worked out the specifics of how we’re going to score the competition. But, STB swimmers associated with the US Army have agreed to the competition for an inaugural challenge that we hope will be renewed annually. This competition isn’t necessarily sponsored or sanctioned by STB. We’re just using the swim for a little friendly competition. Go Navy!

Sincerely,

Dan Force
