2010 Swim-A-Thon!
It’s time again for the Mt. Hood Aquatics Swim-A-Thon! The Swim-A-Thon is our main fundraiser of the year, so it’s important that all families get up to speed on what we are doing and join in on the fun. Please read the entire overview document to become familiar with key dates, tips for success, who to contact for help, and information about the Swim Event on 5/8/10. We are excited to get started with our Swim-A-Thon and look forward to 100% participation from families and swimmers. There are some awesome prizes for the donation campaign and the swim event that you will want to read about.

Start getting your addresses ready! A great tip is to pre-print mailing labels for potential donors and return mailing labels (your address). Pool reps will be distributing the donation letters, envelopes, and stamps starting 4/1/10.
The prizes and levels from USA Swimming will remain the same. The prize list is coming soon. All participants who send at least 10 letters or emails by Friday, 4/9/10 will receive a special treat. In addition, each participant who raises $200 or more will be eligible for additional prizes.
Last year, MHA raised over $45,000 helping to fund programs such as developmental/novice group inter club meets and fund/support the facilities we swim at, our coaching staff, and much more. Our goal is 100% participation by all families during the 2010 MHA Swim-A-Thon. If we meet that goal and each swimmer meets their squad level goal, we will easily achieve our team goal! It is not hard and does not take much time or effort. All we ask of you is to try and make an effort to help fundraise through Swim-A-Thon. You will be amazed at how many people WILL give even in these economic conditions. All you have to do is just ask using the tools we provide. Remember, these goals benefit ALL swimmers.
