Swimmers: The north's answer to the south's Xmas swimmer took place for the second year, at Pickmere Lake Ches. Members of the Dolphin Long distance Swimming Club, from Warrington, Lancs. , braved the foggy weather to travel to Pickmere and take a refreshing dip in the chilly waters. Despite their plans for a race from jetty to jetty being thwarted by the dense fog, these dedicated swimmers kept within sight of each other along the edge of the Mere. In this print captured in December 1969 (Z12447), we see a group of men clad in swimming costumes, emerging from their invigorating swim. Their glistening bodies are testament to their determination and love for this unique Christmas tradition. As they dry themselves off with towels draped over their shoulders, you can almost feel their excitement and camaraderie. This image is not just about sport or swimming; it represents customs and traditions that have stood strong through generations. It showcases how even during festive times like Christmas, people find joy in unconventional activities like cold-water swims. These brave individuals embody resilience as they challenge themselves against nature's elements. As part of our Memory Lane Prints collection, this photograph serves as a nostalgic reminder of an era when community bonds were strengthened through shared experiences and daring adventures. Let this image transport you back to a time when holiday celebrations were marked by unconventional yet unforgettable moments.
