Charles River groups and state officials will revive the Charles River Swimming Day on June 18, welcoming swimmers to take a recreational dip or compete with their peers:
And for the first time ever, organizers will host both a one-mile race and a free swim near the Esplanade's Fiedler Dock on the same day.
"We're so excited to bring these signature events back to the Charles River to celebrate river swimming and strengthen community connections to this important resource," Charles River Conservancy Executive Director Laura Jasinski said in a statement."We believe everyone should have access to the Charles to cool off on a hot summer day and we are working to make that a reality.
