Swim-a-thon 2025 - May 2nd & 3rd 2025

Swim-a-thon

We are excited for everyone to participate in our upcoming Swim-a-thon fundraiser! Swimmers are challenged to swim up to 5km (200 laps) during a 2 hours time period (group dependent). The swim-a-thon is a primary fundraiser for the club and this year our goal is to raise money to purchase backstroke ledges for use during DCSC hosted time-trials and swim meets. Swimmers will be able to continue fundraising until the end of May. 

There are prizes for the top 3 fundraisers within the club:

1. Bucket hat, tote bag, and shirt from Short Course Worlds + $25 Starbucks gift card
2. Bucket and tote bag from Short Course Worlds + $25 Starbucks gift card
3. Bucket hat from Short Course Worlds + starbucks gift card

The group that fundraises the most will receive a Pizza Party following a workout at a later date.
