Swim-A-Thon
Livorna Pool

The Livorna Swim-a-Thon is on October 30th during age group practice! All Livorna swimmers are invited to participate (not just Fall Clinic swimmers!).

  • 8 & Under: 3:30-4:15
  • 9-12: 4:15-5:15
  • 13 & ups: 5:15-6:15

How do I fundraise for our team via our Swim-a-Thon?

  • Everyone on the team received an email from 99 Pledges for each swimmer's individualized fundraising page. You received one email per swimmer in your family.
  • Swimmers can personalize their Swim-a-Thon page on 99 pledges and send it out to family and friends.
  • This fundraiser is a great way to include grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc.. in our fundraising efforts for new blocks. Family and friends can make a per-lap-pledge, or a flat fee. Coach Matt anticipates swimmers will complete about 30 laps during the Swim-a-Thon.
  • 99 Pledges is a free platform, so all of the donations will go directly to Livorna! 
  • You do NOT need to swim in the event to raise money! (Donors can donate a flat donation through the website too.)

In our last big push towards our fundraising goal, we have two great incentives for our swimmers and their families:

  1. If 75% percent of our 2024 summer swimmers register for the Swim-a-Thon on 99Pledges (check your email – a flat donation amount of just $1 will count you as registered!) our swimmers will earn an Otter Pop Party!
  2. THE BIG INCENTIVE: For every $20 that a swimmer raises, their name will be entered into a raffle to WIN PRIORITY JOBS SIGNUPin Summer 2025! We will have a total of three raffle winners! With Priority Jobs Signup, you get to pick your jobs before everyone else, and thus essentially have the pick of whatever jobs you like!
