Swim Across America Nantucket5

Fisher is proud to be a supporter and sponsor of Swim Across America Nantucket, a fundraiser that supports cancer treatment and patient care on Nantucket. There are distance options for all ages and skill levels of swimmers, including the Kids’ Splash, 1/4 mile, 1/2 mile, and 1 mile distances. Hundreds of swimmers (including Olympians!) participate. The more advanced swimmers, take part in the 4-mile distance on August 18, with the main community event taking place at Jetties Beach on August 25th. Swim Across America began as a relay swim from Nantucket to Hyannis. It has evolved into 18 swims in open water as well as pools around the country.
