Swim~A~Thon Update:

 Thank you to all the members that participated in this year's 3rd annual Swim~A~Thon to benefit Cystic Fibrosis.

  So far, we have collected $7,000 and still have a few checks to be collected!  We did not have a great turnout, but we think with the amount of people that attended, the rain that made us move the silent auction inside, and the members that donated before the event....it was a big success.

Thank you!!
