How you can make a difference

People have been asking me how they can support the swim this summer. You have lots of options. You can sign up to be support crew for any of the days we are swimming--July 7 through 21. Or, you can help the HRWC staff with a myriad of tasks right at the office which is in NEW Center on N. Main. If you live along the river you can host a fundraising party. There are lots of tasks, all of them fun, especially since the HRWC staff is such a great group of people.
Another thing you could do is tell your friends and relatives about the swim. My niece who lives in southern California is so geeked about the swim that she sent an email to Oprah! Yeah, you can do things like that too.
You probably have read that I am hoping to raise $10,000 for the HRWC. It only takes 1,000 people sending in a check for $10 to meet that goal. Or 100 giving $100. If everyone who uses or lives on the Huron gives something, we'll make the goal with room to spare!
By the way, how do you use the Huron River? I'd love to know your stories.
