Swim A Thon Questions

How do I raise money?
First you start with an amount of laps you would like to swim. For now lets say you want to swim 10 laps. You would have to raise $10 at $1 per lap. Each swimmer can have several donors with each donor supporting a portion of your final amount or one donor to cover the cost of all your laps. The donors could be friends, family, co-workers, or even yourself. REMEMBER THAT A $10 DONATION IS MATED BY OUR PRIVATE DONOR AND IS REALLY A $20 DONATION.

Where can I pick up a donation form?
I have sent out a form to many of you, however, I will leave plenty of sheets at the pool so please feel free to stop by Founders and pick up a form.

Where is the money going?
The money will be going towards the aquatic programs. Half of the donations will go towards helping the Florida Keys Swim Club which is the local USS registered age group club team that practices here in the upper keys. The other half will go to Friends of the Pool who are focused on building new programs.

Are donations tax deductible?
Yes!

Who counts the laps?
You do! We will have some lap counters helping , however, the honor system will have to be in effect.

Any rules?
No swimmer can swim more than 200 laps and no swimmer can swim for more than 2 hours.

Will there be anything else going on?
Yes! We will have food, games, contests, and clinics going on throughout the day.
