This year we are focusing our attention on ensuring a fun and safe event for all participants and for the planet. We are striving to reduce our impact on the earth, environment and bay. Here are a few minor improvements we have made to the event for 2012.

• Swim shirts have been replaced with Swimmer tote bags - plan to use your tote bag to store your personal effects while swimming the Alcatraz Invitational, then proudly reuse it for years to come at the store, beach, Aquatic Park or gym. T-shirts will also be available for purchase for an additional fee when you register and on the day of the event.
• This year the South End Volunteers will be out in force to assist you and answer questions, they will be plentiful and easy to find in the crowd as they will be wearing red South End t-shirts with VOLUNTEER written across the back
• Refunds given up to 70 days prior to the swim.
• A limited number of day of registration will be taken on a first come first serve basis
• Credit cards will be accepted for merchandise and day of event purchases
• Day of event swim fee is now $175.

• Extra T-shirts $20 online, $25 at the event.
• We will give out a 1st 2nd and 3rd place ribbons in each age group division
