Wheaton Swim Club will be hosting a Spare Change Drive starting on Monday, February 1st through Friday, February 5th. All proceeds will be donated to the American Red Cross to help the Haiti Earthquake Victims. Starting on Monday, February 1st coaches will have jugs with them at practices to collect any spare change swimmers bring. The group with the most change per person will win the contest. Winners will receive a special prize at their practice on Thursday, February 12th. In addition, there will be an opportunity for Mystery Matchers to match the final funds of each or any group. All Mystery Matchers will be kept anonymous; we already have two of them! If you would like to be a Mystery Matcher, please email Lauren@wheatonswimming.com or Jacob@wheatonswimming.com
