The Waterkeepers made the Swim Guide to help you enjoy, celebrate, and care for your local waterbody. The Swim Guide is funded entirely by donations from individuals (like you), foundations, and corporate partners. The Waterkeepers are especially thankful to the RBC Blue Water Project for supporting the earliest stages of this project.
