Glacier Swim Club would like to send a heartfelt thank you to the Juneau community for their incredible generosity and support during the club’s 2016 Aqualaps Fundraising Campaign. We are extremely appreciative and thankful to all the businesses who have signed on as GSC sponsors as well as those that contributed weekly prizes during our campaign. Thank you to Fred Meyer, IGA, the Wharf and Safeway for allowing our swimmers to set up pledge collection tables at those locations. And thank you to everyone who took time to engage with our swimmers and show their support through their pledge donations.
As a way to say thank you to Juneau, GSC coaches, swimmers and parents participated in a Litter Clean Up event on May 13. Swimmers picked up litter in designated areas around the Augustus Brown and Dimond Park swimming pools as well as the two high schools.
Glacier Swim Club is a non-profit organization which was founded by parents of swimmers in 1973. The club offers year-round swimming programs for boys and girls ages 5-18, as well as a Masters program for adults. Swimmers learn correct swimming techniques, gain physical endurance and develop team spirit and sportsmanship.
Thank you so much, Juneau, for your support of Glacier Swim Club.
Cheryl Fellman and Stephanie Haggerty,
GSC Aqualaps Coordinators
