Captain's Cove

About Captain’s Cove: Home of the Swim
Kay and Jan Williams, Directors of Captain’s Cove Marina in Bridgeport, has thrown open the doors to the marina and given the Swim a home for several years.

But being the host for every Swim event means hours of hard work of setting up and dismantling for her and her crew. As Jan sees it, all the hard work is worth it when the Swim stages another successful event at Captain’s Cove. For all her work and commitment, the Swim named Williams the Volunteer of the Year for 2002 at the Swim Volunteer and Sponsor Recognition Breakfast Nov. 1.

Jan is used to rolling up her shirtsleeves and helping assemble tents, put out chairs and tables and help out in anyway that’s needed. On the day of the marathon swim, more than 6,000 spectators and volunteers assemble on the docks to root on the swimmers and be a part of the festivities.

Behind the scenes, Williams is always helping organizing and making the day come together.

In fact, the entire Williams family has been involved with the Swim since it started in 1987. Kaye and her brother Bruce all help out at many Swim events. Jan and her husband Rob Burlinson live in the Black Rock section of Bridgeport.
