Southern Oregon Coast Swims at Eel Lake

We'll start with a 3000-meter swim, twice clockwise around an irregular pentagonal course. Then we'll stage the 1500-meter swim, once around the pentagonal course counter-clockwise. Adults 18 and older may enter one or both swims. Eel Lake is a freshwater lake on the Oregon coast at William M. Tugman State Park, on U.S. 101 between Reedsport and Coos Bay. Expected water temperature is 67-71 F. No, the lake is not named for its residents; it's named for its shape.
