The RCP Tiburon Mile took a year sabbatical off due to its organizer having to focus its core business on the new insurance regulations in the United States, but Bob Placak and crew are back at it planning for their US$10,000-winner-take-all 2015 event in Tiburon, California.
RCP Events announced September 20th 2015 as the date for its anticipated 15th RCP Tiburon Mile.
Registration is open at www.rcptiburonmile.com.
“To date, the RCP Tiburon Mile has raised over US$1.4 Million for charity. Hospice by the Bay is our designated charity for 2015,” explained Placak. “Over 800 swimmers, ages 6-75, from 20 countries will swim one nautical mile from Angel Island to Sam’s Anchor Café in Tiburon.”
Its participants, volunteers, and beneficiaries are looking forward to its return.
