The Virtual Frogman Challenge

August 30th, 2016 Open Water, Press Releases

The Tampa Bay Frogman Swim traces its roots to raising funds and awareness for a SEAL officer severely injured in September 2009 while serving in Afghanistan. Since the inaugural January 2010 event, we’ve grown from raising $34,000 with 39 swimmers, as many kayakers, and 30 onlookers to a professionally set course with over 170 swimmers, 170 kayakers and hundreds of spectators covered by local TV and various media. In January 2016, the Tampa Bay Frogman Swim, an official event of the Navy SEAL Foundation, the #7 open water swimming event in the U.S., and the #3 charity swimming event in the world raised over $600,000.

With our registration for the 2017 event filling out in a matter of minutes, with many disappointed potential swimmer/fundraisers, we have created the “Virtual Frogman Challenge”. For $25, swimmers can raise funds, and with a minimum $250 fundraising effort, receive a t-shirt knowing their efforts are directly contributing to our overall mission.

The Foundation/Swim is looking for individuals and teams that are interested in combining swimming with community service to join us and support the Navy SEAL Foundation.

Swim for the Navy SEALs and help us “Never Leave a Man Behind”.
