Every year the swimmers arrive from different countries but all with a shared passion for open water swimming and heart-warming camaraderie ensues.

They will have a week of training and race in the Festival (Nov 9-10). The British-born Perry, previously worked for British Swimming (2006-2014). During his tenure Team GB won three medals at the 2008 Olympics, with David Davies and <strong>Keri-Anne Payne<\/strong> capturing Silver in the men\u2019s and women\u2019s 10 K marathon and <strong>Cassandra Patten<\/strong> taking Bronze.
