MOPO Miler open water swim coming to Wellesley’s Morses Pond

The Wellesley Recreation Department is organizing the MOPO Miler, a 1/2 mile and 1 mile open swim at Morses Pond on June 25 beginning at 9:30am.

The free and fun non-sanctioned event is open to people 16 and older, though those under 18 need a parent’s permission. The event is designed to raise awareness of melanoma via the Glenna Kohl Fund, though no fundraising is required by participants.

T-shirts will be available for purchase for $20 and MOPO Miler bathing caps will be doled out to all participants so that lifeguards can see you.
