Kingdom Swimmers Share And Care
Courtesy of WOWSA, Huntington Beach, California. Kingdom Swim and open water swimmers from all over the nation joined donated US$2,755 for the North Country Hospital’s Patient Care Initiative Fund. 20% of adult registration fees at the Kingdom Swim supported the fund.
Swimmers also participated in a raffle that included a slot in Kent Nicholas‘ S.C.A.R. Swim Challenge, a slot in Ned Denison’s Cork Distance Swim Camp, a guided swim in San Francisco Bay from Alcatraz to San Francisco, a slot in next year’s Kingdom Swim, and a US$100 gift certificate at the EastSide Restaurant.
The Fund supports uncovered medical expenses of low-income Vermonters to help with transportation costs involved in receiving treatment or therapy.
