Join us for the RTC Open Water Swim (OWS) and Pizza Social on Wednesday, September 18, 2024, in the scenic Midlothian area of Chesterfield! This exciting event marks the season finale for our open water swimming activities, promising a fantastic day filled with camaraderie and celebration.

Participants will have the chance to take part in a refreshing swim while enjoying the great outdoors. After the swim, indulge in delicious pizza and connect with fellow club members and our new sponsor, Lucky Road.
