24 Hour Swim with Kim at the Lynch/van Otterloo YMCA

On Saturday, March 8, beginning at 1:00pm, Kim Garbarino will swim for 24 hours in the pool at the Lynch/van Otterloo Y to raise money for this year's campaign, which directly supports the Y's financial assistance program. The assistance program ensures that everyone in the community can participate in Y programs, including swim lessons for kids and families, regarless of ability to pay.

Garbarino, who swam the English Channel in 2012, believes that any child who lives in a community near the water should learn how to swim. Garbarino's goal is to raise $10,000 for swim lessons.
