Congratulations Piranha-thon winners!
Congratulations Piranha-thon winners!
Dear Piranha families,
Our Piranhas did an amazing job swimming and raising money for our team. We are in awe of their stamina, their sportsmanship as well as their enthusiasm. Thanks to them and to you, the team raised more than $16,000 in pledges! This will be an amazing help in paying for our team banquet, pep rallies, and social events as well as buying new equipment for our swim practices and meets.
Together the Piranhas swam a total of 8,522 laps (887 more laps than last year!). This amounts to 213,050 meters or 132.4 miles! That distance is the same as Parklawn Pool to West Virginia in a straight line!
A special commendation to the 8 & under girls, who had an 87% participation during Piranha-thon! They are the winners of the special social event where we will have a coin dive, and will be decorating cupcakes!
Congratulations to all the winners of most laps swam and most improved. Please note that we divided the 9-10 age group into two prizes, as some of them swam for only 30 minutes last year and swam for 1 hour this year. The winners of most pledges fulfilled & most money raised will be announced after all of the donations have come through.
Now we need your help collecting those Piranha-thon pledges! There are three ways you may complete your pledge by Saturday, June 21:
- Complete your pledge via this PayPal link. (See the attached PDF document for the lap counts per child).
- Write a check payable to “Piranha Power Boosters Club,” bring it to the pool and give it to Rebecca Cervoni, Caroline Molina, or Andrea Cordero.
- Mail your check to: Piranha Power Boosters Club
