Dan Angress of Corona del Mar finished a Catalina Island-to-the-mainland swim for charity in 10 hours 8 minutes Saturday. Angress, 34, left Arrow Point, Catalina, shortly after midnight and
reached his intended mainland target, Pt. Vicente, on the Palos Verdes peninsula, at 10:30 a.m. Angress estimated that he has pledges of between $4,000 and $5,000 for the Amparo Youth
Shelter of Garden Grove. The shelter is part of the Orange County Youth and Family Services, which provides emergency care for abused and runaway boys and girls aged 11 to 17. Angress, who
swims with the UC Irvine Masters program, became the 66th person to swim the 21-mile channel since the first crossing in 1927. MORE TO READ
