UPCOMING SWIM-A-THON

PLEASE CHECK YOUR EMAILS FOR FURTHER DETAILS ON THE EVENT!  THANKS!

This year the Candu swim club will be hosting our annual Swim-a-thon Saturday March 24, 2012 from 7:15-9:25am with a team breakfast to follow (the alternative date for those who can’t attend Saturday is Tuesday March 27, 2012 from 5-7pm). Swim-a-thon is the major national fundraising project supported by most affiliated clubs in Canada, and is Candu's major community-based fundraising event of the year. It promotes and finances amateur competitive swimming by having swimmers collect pledges (per length, or to a predetermined maximum, or for a fixed amount) then participate in a marathon swim. Swim-a-thon is an excellent method of raising funds for the Club: 85% stays with the Candu swim club, 10% is donated to a local charity, and 5% goes to Swim Ontario for administration. Swim-a-thon helps maintain Candu’s fees the lowest in the Ottawa Valley! Candu Competitive, Fitness and I Can Swim Fast swimmers will swim for two hours, or up to 200 lengths, while the younger I Can Swim swimmers will swim as many lengths as possible in an hour.

HAPPY CANVASSING!
