Thank you for another successful event! See you in 2024.
Hockessin Athletic Club's Frozen Frogman event has raised an incredible $165,000+ for veterans' causes since 2016.
2023 will mark our sixth year supporting the Travis Manion Foundation.
There are three events that you can participate in:
-
3.1 Mile (5k) swim - 218 pool lengths / 109 laps
Event honors Navy EOD LT Chris Mosko, a son, brother, and husband, who was killed in April 2012. Chris graduated from Drexel, married a Philly girl, and settled in San Diego. Chris was a good friend, a trusted leader, and had a quick smile and laugh for all.
-
1 Mile swim - 70 pool lengths / 35 laps
Event honors Navy EOD1 Sean Carson, a son, father and husband, who was killed in August 2012 in Afghanistan. Sean was an avid surfer and an outstanding Navy Explosive Ordnance Disposal technician. Sean and Chris Mosko served together at Navy EODMU 3 in San Diego and Afghanistan.

BUD/S Challenge
Event honors Navy SEAL LT Brendan Looney, a son, brother and husband, who was killed in September 2010. A Naval Academy graduate, Brendan excelled at football and lacrosse becoming an All-American, was best friends with Travis Manion, and honor

Our annual Frozen Frogman campaign is held to honor our veterans and families of those who gave the ultimate sacrifice.
All net proceeds will benefit the Travis Manion Foundation, which provides
support for veterans and the families of fallen heroes. 90% of the Travis Manion
Foundation’s annual fund goes directly to the programs and services they offer.
