Taking the Plunge

Published Feb. 17, 2017

TAKING THE PLUNGE: Members of the Dolphin Club regularly suit up for a dip in the always-brisk San Francisco Bay. Here are five of the six Dolphin/Tigers after swimming earlier in the day in 50-degree waters in January. From left are Van Metaxas ’84; Lisa Newman-Wise ’05; Jay Dean ’79, who rows in the club; Joe Illick ’56; and Krist Jake ’66 (Lowen Cattolico ’98 is not pictured). Illick, who plunges in daily, says the club provides a challenging swim and ample social opportunities. “One might say it becomes a way of life,” he says.
