The Mackinac Island Swim is a non-competitive swimming event serving as a fundraiser for the Mackinaw Woman's Club. Participants swim in the clear waters of Mackinac Island and enjoy finish line festivities at Mission Point Resort, hosted by sponsors. Proceeds from merchandise sales, raffles, and auctions support the charity. The event includes a participation fee covering entry, an event towel, a finisher medal, and a meal ticket. Participants must arrange their own ferry transport to the island, with a reserved ferry available for swimmers and spectators on the morning of the event.
