Courtesy of Phil White, Vampire Swims.
On Halloween October 31st, 15 inaugural Vampire Swims were held in various open bodies of water around the world.
“The blood is drawn, and Vampire Swim looks forward to 2016 with new venues already signing on to join this international blood drive,” says visionary Phil White.
“In addition to open water venues, we are inviting pools large and small to organize events in 2016. www.vampireswim.com will serve as a central source of information and communication as we grow, but each venue will be expected to do its own organizing. What better way to Grab the Day, Do Some Good, and Have Some Fun.”
