Our 2nd Annual Swim-A-Thon is scheduled for February 17th from 5pm-10pm!
A Swim-A-Thon is a fundraiser in which participants earn money by swimming lengths of the pool. Each swimmer will be limited to a maximum of 200 lengths in the pool. This will be done over several hours. 95% of the funds collected will go to NRATS, and the other 5% goes back to USA Swim. The coaches are coming up with creative ways for swimmers to achieve their 200 laps. This is a family event which will include food, games and a movie, and open swim. Please remember that this is a voluntary fundraiser. If you decide not to secure pledges, you are still welcome to come and swim. We are also asking each family to bring food donations for Five Loafs food shelf in New Richmond.
The results are in for our 2010 Swim-A-Thon. The pledge money has been counted. We made a profit of $1,851.00. Approximately half of our team collected pledges. Because it was so successful, we plan to make this an annual event. Just think of the money we could raise if our whole team was able to collect pledges!
