SAMARITAN SWIM 2023

Malta's 23rd Annual
Samaritan Swim!

On January 1st, 2023 we made a splash at Eastern Point Beach, Groton, CT! WCTY provided music and gave live updates to their listeners. Swimmers took the plunge into the Sound at noon. There are always a few brave souls who swim around for a few minutes, but most had a quick dip and then joined spectators for refreshments and warm beverages in the Zbierski House and on the beach.

Thank you to everyone who helped make the day a success!! Special thanks to our participants and sponsors (featured below) and others who donated their time and support.

Here is a video of our swimmers taking the plunge!

Malta Street Ministry Volunteer Peter Keramidas takes the plunge for the first time in place of daughter Kera Keramidas. Kera has been a faithful participant in the Swim for 19 years but was ill so Dad jumped in - in more ways than one.
