[GBM ENews List] Sunday, Sept 8th, JT Pool: One Million Meters for Soren

Cancer has struck the Seacoast Swimming Community. 6 year-old Soren Cooper, who swims for Seacoast, was recently diagnosed with Burkitt's Lymphoma. This is a fairly aggressive yet often treatable form of Lymphoma. His whole family is immersed in the swimming community since his mother, Erika, is the Masters swim coach at UNH and his father, Vaughn, is a frequent pool visitor during his Ironman training.

What better way to rally around a young swimmer but to come together as a community and swim as many laps as possible. The goal is to get as many people to swim as many laps as possible with the hope to reach One Million Meters. We welcome you to come and swim at the Jenny Thompson pool in Dover starting at noon on September 8 and swim as many laps as you can. You can swim for an hour or two or three or four. All abilities are welcome. There will be lifeguards on deck as well as many talented coaches who can offer technique help if wanted.


Where: Jenny Thompson Pool in Dover, NH
When: September 8, 2013. Will start at noon and plan as swimming as long as you can.
