SUMMARY:34th Annual Swim Across America – Long Island Sound Open Water Swim Makes Waves to Fight Cancer July 25
DESCRIPTION:Swim Across America – Long Island Sound in Westchester County, New York, will celebrate its 34th annual open water swim on Saturday, July 25, 2026, in Larchmont, New York. The event brings together close to a thousand swimmers, volunteers, Olympians, spectators and supporters each year to raise funds for cancer research, care and patient support services in the New York City area. Since its first Westchester County swim in 1992, Swim Across America – Long Island Sound has raised more than $32 million for its local beneficiaries, which include Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, Columbia University Medical Center, Weill Cornell Medicine and Cancer Support Team. Following a record-breaking fundraising year last year, the 2026 open water swim will be held on July 25, along with eight additional community pool swims, that run from June 26 through August 1. All events support the organization’s mission to Make Waves to Fight Cancer. Swimmers, land and water volunteers (boaters, kayakers, paddle boarders) interested in participating in either the July 25 open water swim or any of the pool swims can register at http://www.swimacrossamerica.org/longislandsound.\nThe July 25 Swim Across America – Long Island Sound open water swim is a point-to-point swim that begins at the Larchmont Yacht Club, 1 Woodbine Ave. in Larchmont, New York, and finishes at Larchmont Shore Club, 1 Oak Bluff Ave. in Larchmont. Swimmers can choose 2K, 5K and 10K distances. The 10K swimmers swim across Long Island Sound starting from Glen Cove, New York, to the Larchmont Shore Club. The minimum fundraising requirement is $500 for 2K and 5K swimmers and $5,000 for the 10K swimmers.\nThe 34th annual Swim Across America – Long Island Sound open water swim in Westchester County is Saturday, July 25.
