We will be leaving the beach in Chocolate Hole at 1pm est Saturday June 27th. The Serendipity.vi web cam will capture the start of our swim to Caneel. Thanks to VIBE boat charters out of Red Hook. They will be escorting us across the areas with heavy boat traffic.

Hey Tory,

I saw this and said, wait I think I know that guy! My name is Russ, I went to Fitch and graduated in 95 (and is Sara Tara’s sister?)…Hey, congrats on the swim/goal and be safe. My wife and I are frequent visitors to STJ, going at least once/year for the last six.

Yeah, and I echo the thoughts of a few of the others…If I had a boat…ON ST JOHN…I would love to help!

All the best,

Russ

You said it Judy! I have watched a lot of people drink themselves to death, literally, here in Love City over the past few decades! I celebrate this effort and applaud the example they are setting. What a memory to tell their grand kids. How do we get in touch with them to lend a hand or offer support? This is what our kids need to be made aware of, not the glorified partying that is so socially accepted here.
