You're making waves and we want to celebrate it! This year, we're excited to introduce WaveMaker Rewards - a new way to recognize swimmers who go above and beyond in their fundraising. As you reach key fundraising milestones, you'll unlock exclusive giveaways along the way. Each reweard is our way of saying thank you for your dedication and impact.

How It Works.

We've set four fundraising milestones above the required minimum, each with its own exciting giveaways. As you reach each level, you'll earn the corresponding reward:

• $500 milestone
  • Arena goggles
  • eelo towel
• $750 milestone
  • Aull-Dry bag
  • $20 MiddleCoast gift certificate
• $1,000 milestone
  • Oryana retro tote bag (first 25)
• $1,250+ milestone
  • $20 The Little Fleet gift certificate (first 8)
  • Sailing for 4 aboard the Mantiou gift certificate

Each giveaway has been generously provided by businesses who share your passion for protecting the bay.

The deadline for eligibility is Friday, July 24, 2026, at 11:59pm. Please note, the deadline for eligibility is two weeks prior to the event so the generous businesses donating giveaways have enough time to prepare.

...And there's more!

We'll also be awarding giveaways to the top fundraiser in select timeframes:

• May 1-31 top fundraiser
  • $100 NautiCat gift certificate
• June 1-30 top fundraiser
