About the event
International Women's Day (IWD) is a global day celebrating the social, economic, cultural and political achievements of women. The day marks a call to action to create a diverse, equitable, and inclusive world. Groups come together worldwide to celebrate women's achievements, raise awareness against bias, and take action for women's equality!
The 5th Annual Women’s Wave is the largest & coldest celebration of International Women’s Day (IWD) in the country! The Two Maine Mermaids signature event invites dippers to gather at Willard Beach in South Portland to celebrate the strength, power, and capacity of women by walking hand-in-hand into Maine’s cold ocean. This year, our goal is to have 1,000 dippers line all 2,100 feet of Willard Beach’s shoreline making a bold statement in support of women. So invite a friend, neighbor, cousin, and coworker!
Let’s do this!
