Racer X Aquatics 6th Annual Racer X-A-Thon & Picture Day
Team Goal to Raise over $20,000!!
If the team meets the goal of $20,000, Coach Jim will swim the gauntlet.
Join us for our 6th Annual Swim-a-Thon! On April 29, every member of our TEAM —comprising more than 90 athletes — will swim up to 200 laps to support our program. As a TEAM, we have been recognized nationally for our Swim-a-Thon success for many years.
We know our community is strong, and our swimmers are swimming faster than ever locally, regionally, nationally, and internationally. Daily training, regular competition, and an emphasis on PROCESS by which goals are accomplished offer fundamental life lessons to our swimmers. Our theme of "TEAM - Together Everyone Achieves More" is perfect for our athletes as they strive to become the best TEAMmates possible and help us take this program to new levels. Together, we can achieve great things!
Swim-a-Thon is a USA Swimming Foundation-approved fundraiser that swim teams all over the United States participate in to raise money for their respective clubs. To raise money for Swim-a-Thon, swimmers receive pledges and donations from family members, friends, neighbors, and local businesses.
Racer X Aquatics' goal is to raise money through the participation of athletes with the fundraising. Donations will be used to provide critical support to our club for training equipment, pool time rent, coach development, team travel, starting blocks, wedges, power rack and anything else our club needs. Racer X Aquatics is a 501c3 nonprofit and donations are tax-deductible. 5% of the proceeds raised from our Swim-a-Thon goes back to the USA Swimming Foundation to support “Learn to Swim” programs and to provide financial support to our U.S. National Team athletes and coaches. By donating to our Swim-a-Thon fundraiser, you are not only providing funds to build a stronger team at home — you are also helping to give kids across the country the same great experience in the pool.
It's a great opportunity to bring family and friends together for some fun while supporting our TEAM. Join us for great family entertainment. All ages are welcome, from grandparents to babies. During the event, we will have a balloon twisting, airbrush tattoos, and fabulous desserts from Racer X Parents.

8:45am — Individual Pictures
