Tha'ts right, we're bringing it back! The 2026 Swim-A-Thon!
This is one of our few fundraising events and it’s the big one with great prizes for participants! There are two parts: the fundraising, which starts now and the two hours/200 lengths swim, which is on May 23rd.
Our goal is to raise $10,000. These funds will help cover the costs for our coaches to travel to out-of-town championship meets - such as Provincials in Victoria - as well as help offset our recent swim meet timing equipment purchase.
If each swimmer in our club raised just $100, we'd easily exceed our goal!
PRIZES – To be announced
The swim-a-thon will take place on Saturday, May 23 from 6:30-9:00am at Sungod. Each swimmer will swim for two hours or 200 lengths (5 kilometers!) Younger swimmers can use a kickboard if/when needed. Each swimmer MUST have an adult (e.g. parent) present to count laps for them. We’ll provide counting sheets and coffee.
Our swim-a-thon starts right at 7:00am so, please arrive on deck at 6:30am. We will be running an activation and allowing swimmers and parents to get situated in their lanes. We’ll also provide a snack once you’re done and then award all the prizes!
Please mark this event on your calendars and declare attendance.
More details around prizes will be send out soon...
