Swim to Feed the Hungry is a swim meet held at Lifetime Arden. This year it was held Saturday, November 15th. This meet allows teams to come together and not only race each other in the pool but also raise money for families in need. The event is run by athletes Cooper Zarro, Blake Pentecost, Lily Damrell, Max Milevsky, Joey Salvetti and Mackenzie Terry. Cooper has been doing this project for the past 6 years and has raised over $70,000 for the Raley’s Food for Familes. https://www.kcra.com/article/arden-swim-to-feed-the-hungry/69447698?utm_campaign=snd-autopilot
