Hi Garner Dolphins Families,

The countdown is on—our Swim-A-Thon is just TWO DAYS AWAY on Saturday July 11!

We're looking forward to a fun morning of swimming, teamwork, and helping our team reach our fundraising goal of $2,500 to replace our swim lane lines! Right now, the team has raised $1,050.00 dollars towards our goal!!!

If you haven't already, here are a few important reminders:

Register Your Swimmer

We want every Dolphin to be part of the fun! If your swimmer hasn't registered yet, there's still time. Right now, the 15-18 age group has the lowest number of swimmers registered with only one swimmer, and the 6Us are in the lead with the most!

The Swim-A-Thon is open to all ages, and every swimmer can help us reach our team goal.

We Still Need Volunteers!

It takes lots of helping hands to make this event a success. Just like a swim meet, we quite literally can't run this without your help. We've only had two people sign up to volunteer so far, and we need your help!

We're still looking for volunteers to help with:

• Lap Tracking
• Time Tracking
• Kid Catchers/Pushers
• Check-in

If you will be at the event, we'd greatly appreciate your help!

Sign up to volunteer here.

Keep Asking for Sponsors!

There's still plenty of time to collect pledges and donations!

Supporters can choose whichever option works best for them:
Sponsor your swimmer per lap
Sponsor your swimmer based on swim time (10 & Under swimmers)
Make a one-time donation before the event.

Donations can be made through the Garner Dolphins' Venmo . Please include the swimmer’s name in the payment comments so we can properly credit their fundraising totals. Every donation, large or small, helps us get closer to our $2,500 goal to replace our swim lane lines and support an amazing season for all of our swimmers. Right now, the team has raised $1,050.00 dollars towards our goal!!!

Don't forget to share your fundraising graphic on social media and reach out to family, friends, neighbors, and coworkers. You might be surprised how many people are excited to support our team!
