We're excited to announce that this year, alongside GraphQLConf 2025 in Amsterdam, we’re diving into something a little different. This is your once in a lifetime opportunity to swim in the Amsterdam canals and craft some fin-tastic puns. We've created a team to participate in the [Amsterdam City Swim](https://www.amsterdamcityswim.nl/), and we’d love for you to join the [GraphQL Stream Team](https://www.amsterdamcityswim.nl/teams/graphql-stream-team) on Sunday, September 7th!

**Why We're Swimming**
11+
12+
The Amsterdam City Swim isn’t just a unique athletic event—it’s a powerful fundraiser supporting research into ALS (amyotrophic lateral sclerosis), a devastating neurological disease that still has no cure. Every stroke we take helps raise money and awareness, and contributes to the ongoing fight against ALS.
13+
14+
As developers, technologists, and open source enthusiasts, we often work together to solve complex problems. Now, we’re channeling that same energy into something beyond our everyday work—supporting a cause that impacts lives around the world. Our goal is to raise €2,500.
15+
16+
**Who Can Join?**
17+
18+
Anyone is welcome, even if you aren’t able to attend GraphQLConf! All you need is a swimsuit/wetsuit and goggles. Whether you're a seasoned swimmer or just in it for the adventure, we want you. **There are two different distance options - 750m + 2.25 km.**
19+
20+
**Not a Fish?**
21+
22+
We love a fan club! We’ll arrange a meetup spot for spectators and a post-swim soiree.
