SWIM-A-THON 2026 | FINAL COUNTDOWN!

May 4, 2026

Our annual Swim-a-Thon fundraising period is in the final stretch! Thank you everyone who has participated in helping us reach our fundraising goal of $20,000 by May 31, 2026

But, we aren't done yet! We need your help to reach our goal by the deadline. If every swimmer donates just $30.00, we'll make it together.

 

What is the Swim-a-Thon?

Swim-A-Thon is an in-pool fundraiser in which swimmers complete a set distance (1.5 KM – Trojan Academy; 3.0 KM – Junior Program; 5 KM – Senior Program). In exchange for taking on this challenge, participants ask friends, family, and supporters to make a donation to help us reach our fundraising goal. All donations are collected online through a personalized fundraising page hosted by Swimming Canada.

 

Why Participate?

  • Prize Incentives: We have a range of prizes to be won this year! Water bottles, LYsport Gift cards, a Pizza Party, Reduced Volunteer Requirements for next season, and more!
  • Support the Team: Your participation helps us support team travel costs, club events, equipment needs, and Academy development. Every dollar raised helps strengthen our program and enhance the experience for all swimmers.

  • Impact: Thanks to everyone's efforts last year, we raised a total of $18,846 and we've seen the impact! These funds have allowed us to purchase items including whiteboards, fins for Academy swimmers, heart rate monitors, medicine balls, iPads, a TV, an underwater camera (arriving Spring 2026), additional mental performance sessions (Spring/Summer 2026), and contributed toward team travel costs.
