Swim-A-Thon: Save The Date 12/30/2022 7-10am

Link to Donate for the 2022 Swim-A-Thon:West Swim-A-Thon Donation Form

Winter Break means the Downingtown West Swim & Dive Team Swim-A-Thon and Breakfast!  

The team will be raising funds for Cure4Cam and the Downingtown West Swim & Dive Team.  

 

Cure4Cam has been a charity that we have donated to for many years. The Cure4Cam Childhood Cancer Foundation seeks to raise community awareness about childhood cancers and supports the development of new and more humane therapies for children with these diseases.

“I strongly believe that there are always two ways to look at a situation: As an opportunity, or as a problem. Thinking positively is the only way to make the problem fixed, so why not just start with the opportunity and just make your way through your troubles.”  Cameron Evans.

 

The Downingtown West Swim & Dive Team provides a great environment for swimmers and divers to improve their skills and build lasting friendships.  The funds that we raise are used to purchase equipment used during practices as well as to attend to other team needs during the season.  Last year, we started using TeamUnify as a tool for coaches, parents, and students.  Students are able to access their times on TeamUnify and send them to colleges.  Parents and students can commit to team events, see practice schedules, meet dates, and other news pertaining to the team.  Finally, coaches can use TeamUnify to create lineups, see splits, and make use of other coaching tools.
