2019 Reef & Run Series In Santa Barbara
Courtesy of Reef & Run, Santa Barbara, California.The 2019 Reef & Run season began last week and will continue Thursday nights for another 10 weeks until August 29th when the ocean swim season culminates in the Boat to Beach race.
“It is a great bargain at US$15 per night and the Thursday night schedule allows swimmers to participate in other summer season races throughout the summer weekends,” says Steven Munatones.

The proceeds from the 2018 season enabled the Reef and Run series to donate more than US$22,000 to the local Junior Lifeguard program and the Nick Johnson Scholarship Fund.
Nick Johnson was a University of California Santa Barbara athlete and local water polo standout athlete who passed away while swimming in a pool. The Fund is administered by the Santa Barbara High School Aquatics Booster Club. Funds donated in memory of Johnson is used for education related to water safety as well as capital improvements to the Santa Barbara High School Aquatics Facility.
