Hi ONCC swim families, 

We are so excited to be hosting the Nashville Dolphins next Wednesday for their annual visit with some of their members and our DolFUN swim during our regularly scheduled practice times on Wednesday June 17th! 

To participate you just show up to your regular practice time, your swimmer will try to swim as many laps as they can during their practice time and junior coaches will keep track of their laps! They can have friends and family members pledge an amount per lap to sponsor them if they would like. All proceeds go to the Nashville Dolphins. 

If you are not familiar with the Nashville Dolphins, it is a local nonprofit that provides FREE water safety and aquatics programming to special needs adults and children with no age-out policy. Not only does this help combat the alarming statistic of drowning being a leading cause of accidental death in the special needs community but also allows our participants to experience the joy and pride of being on a swim team, just like you! 

Participating in this DolFUN swim is exciting and allows your child to give back to others while doing something they love. Please take a few minutes to read the attached flyers about how the DolFUN swim will work and how to collect pledges from friends and families. Raising money is completely optional but every little bit helps this amazing organization. They are encouraging online donations and instructions for that are on the flyer make sure your donors select ONCC as swim club and your swimmers name so they get credit! 

They are kindly asking for all donations to be turned in by Monday June 22nd, so they can recognize the top fundraisers at the County Meet. They also invite the top two fundraisers from each club to participate in a unified relay with some of the Nashville Dolphins members during the Saturday June 27th meet day.
