We stumbled upon the concept of “mermaiding” on a recent radio story, which said that the sport/activity was rapidly growing across the country. Apparently, mermaiding, the art of swimming like a mermaid, has captivated the imaginations of both children and adults alike. While we can’t verify those claims, it sounded just strange enough to potentially make a unique resident event! As you can imagine, mermaiding is essentially using a monofin to do the dolphin kick in swimming, and I would bet that most of us have tried this as a kid at least one time in our lives.

On small and large communities I have had great success with this event with hundreds of found rocks and thereby hundreds of positive points of resident contact. I usually start with about 30 rocks and place them is relatively easy places to be found, but it’s always fun to hide a few more difficult ones. -Erik Husa Top...
