Why this event?

The Dutton Dash is a fast and fun sprint event held in memory of COWSA legend Tim Dutton, a true master of the dash.

Celebrate the end of the ocean swimming season with a short, sharp swim in either the 500m or 1km distance. Whether you’re racing for a prize or just in it for the fun and food, this inclusive event is open to all.

Entry is by donation to the Heart Foundation, so come along, support a good cause, and enjoy a great day in honour of Tim.
