Reminder – Swim-a-thon 2014, Saturday August 16
Now is the time to register or donate for 4th Annual Swim-a-thon on Saturday, August 16, to benefit CURE Childhood Cancer. Registrants will be swimming from 8 a.m. – 11 a.m., but you can participate by donating any time! This event is in honor of our own Venetian Poolshark, Katherine (Kate) Athanassiades. Kate, who is 17, was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor in September 2010 and underwent neurosurgery, chemotherapy and radiation therapy. She has been a Poolshark for 12 years, a Junior Shark coach and a Junior Guard. For the combined first three years of this event, Venetian has raised over $17,000. Let’s see if we can match or surpass our goal of $5,000 this year!!
