Shark Swims 22 Miles Towing Cannonballs

Jim Dreyer, aka “The Shark,” is tackling a 22-mile Lake Michigan swim towing 250 cannonballs—each a tribute to 1776 and America’s 250th birthday—to fund a Combat Veterans Memorial in Whitehall. Carrying one cannonball himself as a tribute to his WWII vet dad, he’ll pull 249 more in dinghies, totaling 1,500 pounds. Proceeds from selling the cannonballs will support local veterans. The swim kicks off August 7th, blending history, honor, and sheer grit. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
