“Every story, no matter how strange, starts with the truth”

Join us on the sea shore to take to the waves, and help to tell the story that will keep us safe for another year!

Each year , a flower blooms in the ocean and we are called to fetch from it a story so entertaining, fantastic and exciting that the sea monster, the storm and the spirits of the ocean will be fully absorbed and will forget to rage and storm for the next 12 months.

The sea runes must be fetched from the water, and a good yarn must be told, or we all face a year of storms and tumult ….

The shore sisters need swimmers brave enough for this swim mission- could it be you?

Join Burn the Curtain for a unique shore side adventure for wild swimmers and lovers of good stories. Bring your swimming costume, a towel and your imagination.

Participants should be happy with a swim of 100m of sheltered water, and bring something to keep them warm afterwards.

 

Tues 8 July – 4pm & 5.30pm
Wed 9 July – 4.30pm & 6pm
Thurs 10 July – 5.15pm & 6.45pm
