  After the race, enjoy a beautiful day at the beach! But before you go, please learn more about Lake Michigan rip tides. These powerful currents can quickly pull swimmers away from shore, and they can be deadly.

  Here are some tips for staying safe in Lake Michigan:

  • Always swim in a designated swimming area with lifeguards on duty.
  • Never swim alone.
  • Be aware of the water conditions and pay attention to any warning flags.
  • If you get caught in a rip current, don't panic. Swim parallel to the shore until you are out of the current, then swim back to shore.

  Thank you to our lifeguards for all they do to keep us safe!
