same number of hours per day that were given to Helen Keller,
Pasteur, Michelangelo, Mother Teresa, Leonardo da Vinci,
Thomas Jefferson and Albert Einstein.”

On
February 12th, 2012, CAC in partnership with USA Swimming will hold its annual
SWIM-A-THON®
in which over 40 local
swimmers will swim up to 200 lengths or up to 2 hours to raise money for
this
community-based swim team. The money raised helps fund our primary and
most critical expense - pool rental fees. The last Swim-A-Thon was the
most
successful fundraiser for the club thanks to the generosity of many
local
businesses.
