About this Event

Swim A Mile | Move A Mile for Women with Cancer returns May 9–10, 2026 at Trefethen Aquatics Center in Oakland!

For more than 30 years, this community-powered event has brought swimmers, walkers, teams, and families together to move a mile in honor of loved ones and to help fund free services for women with cancer across Alameda and Contra Costa counties.


Participants can:

• Swim a mile in the pool
• Water walk
• Complete a mile outdoors
• Create a team and fundraise together
• Join in honor or memory of someone they love


This is more than a fitness event. It is a weekend filled with music, community, great food, team spirit, and a shared commitment to making sure local women and families have access to patient navigation, support groups, wellness classes, and emergency financial assistance.


Official registration takes place on our secure event platform. (Eventbrite is used for event discovery only.)
