CUDATHON Event/Fundraiser

The "CUDATHON" is a fun event where swimmers will have a chance to see how many laps they can swim during a regular practice session. The swimmers will be swimming laps for fun as well as trying to reach personal goals. Every swimmer will hear ways from their coaches on how to set short and long-term goals for the season. They will then set a personal goal on how many laps they think they can swim during the CUDATHON.

This year the funds will help replace aging technology, tents, and swim equipment. Swimmers are asked to raise pledges for every lap swum. More information & this year's flyer & pledge sheet can be downloaded from our website and everything is posted on our Facebook.
