Genesee Mountain Thunder

Swimathon

All swimmers are invited to participate in our annual swim-a-thon on Thursday morning, July 9th.

 

Proceeds will be used to purchase a new tent for our Genesee Mountain Thunder swim team.            

                                 

And in support of our own Genesee community, the remaining monies will be used to purchase a Denver Tool for the Genesee Fire Department. 

The TNT Tool (or Denver Tool as it was formerly known) is a multi-purpose tool used by firefighters, emergency personnel, and law enforcement officers to gain forcible entry to buildings, automobiles, etc. during emergency situations.  It is a combination axe, sledgehammer, pry tool, ram, and D-handle pull tool.

                                                              

In recognition of this support, the Genesee Fire Department will award the top fundraiser a ride to school on the fire truck along with 4 of their friends.
Here's how to participate.......1.      The swim-a-thon will be held in two 90 minute blocks of time on Thursday, July 9th.  Block 1 will run from 7:00am to 8:30am.  Block 2 will run from 8:30am to 10:00am.  Each participant swimmer will need to select and sign-up for the block they want to swim.  Signup sheets will be at the morning and evening practices starting Monday, June 29th.  2.      Next, swimmers will need to gather pledges from family, friends and neighbors.  Pledges are usually a per lap contribution, but lump sum donations work too.  Use the "Swim-a-thon Pledge Sheet"  to track pledges and the name of the person(s) making the pledge.  3.      On July 9th, participants will swim as many laps as they can in their 90 minute block.  There will be food, and prizes for all participants.  4.      In the week following the swim-a-thon, swimmers need to gather their pledge monies and turn them in at one of their morning practices.  We would like to have all monies turned in by the following Friday, July 17th.5.      The week of July 19th the top fundraiser will be announced. Support the Genesee Mountain Thunder Swim Team and the Genesee Fire Department.
