Swimmers Go The Distance At Swim-a-Thon

Over 100 Sunkist swimmers participated in this year’s Sunkist Swim-a-thon for a fun night of swimming to  raise funds for the team. Swimmers in every group did their part to swim as many laps as they could in a two hour period, swimming over 400,000 yards during the event—which equals 227 miles!

Great job of swimming to all our swimmers and extra props to all our parent volunteers that came out to help count laps and provide refreshments. THANK YOU!

The team’s annual fundraising campaign is off to a terrific start with $6,941 turned in during the Swim-a-thon. Tax-deductible contributions and donations will be collected through December 20.  If you would like to help support the team contact your favorite swimmer or head coach David Orr at coachdavidorr@gmail.com.

Thank you to everyone for supporting Sunkist Swim Team.
