Humboldt Bay Critter Crawl
Critter Crawl
Next month boasts the return of the Humboldt Bay Critter Crawl, a non-competitive open water swim benefitting local charities caring for wild and domestic animals. Does swimming in the bay sound crazy? Organizer Sarah Green has answered this question more than once – most recently on KHUM radio – and the answer seems to be, not completely! Let’s go with “invigorating” – after all, 13 dedicated folks partook in last year’s inaugural event.
The event consists of two current-assisted swims beginning near the opening to bay. The short course, an 0.7 mile swim, ends at the county campground. The long course, a 4.5-mile swim, continues along the Eureka waterfront to the Woodley Island Marina. The Critter Crawl takes place on Sunday, August 2, 2015 to benefit the North Coast Marine Mammal Center in Crescent City.
