Event Description:
We invite you to join us for the 30th Annual Penguin Swim on New Year’s Day, Monday, January 1, 2024!
Once again, the swim will be held at the Princess Royale Oceanfront Hotel at 91st Street in Ocean City, Maryland.
The Penguin Swim is a fun annual event to support our not-for-profit community hospital! Each year, hundreds of Penguins raise funds to help AGH provide the excellent quality care on which our community depends.
Individual and Team fundraising efforts by Penguin Swim participants enable Atlantic General to continue to provide that care — but they can’t do it alone! Business sponsors help make the event a great success, as the Penguin Swim is one of our largest fundraisers in support of AGH’s mission to provide a coordinated care system with access to quality care, personalized service and education to improve individual and community health.
Event day check-in and registration runs from 9:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. The swim will take place at 12:00 p.m. on the beach. ALL participants MUST register either online or in-person AND check-in to receive a wristband to gain access to the Swim Area!
We offer a special invitation to all participants to come to the advance check-in and registration at the Princess Royale from 2:00 to 4:00 p.m. on New Year’s Eve.
The registration fee is $30 per participant for those who register online on or before December 30th. The registration fee is $35 per participant for those who register online or in person on December 31st and January 1st.
All participants who register on or before December 10th will receive an official 2024 Penguin Swim short-sleeve t-shirt. Shirts for participants who register after December 10th will be available while supplies last. Additionally, participants who raise or donate $100 or more are also eligible to receive an official 2024 Penguin Swim long-sleeve t-shirt while supplies last.
Register online at AGHPENGUINSWIM.ORG. If you are a returning Penguin from last year’s Penguin Swim, please LOGIN first before signing up for this year’s event. Thank you!
