2026 Raleigh Racers Swim-a-Thon Information

Date: March 17, 2026
Location: Pullen Aquatic Center
Hours: 6:00PM to 8:00PM
Objective: A high-energy fundraising event where team athletes challenge themselves to swim as many lengths as possible to support the team’s season and travel expenses.
Goal: To raise at least $4,000 for the Raleigh Racers.

Download the double-sided pledge form by clicking here, and print as many copies as you need to.

How it Works

  • The 15-Minute Challenge: Participants have a 15-minute window set to swim as many lengths (laps) as possible, and use any stroke.
  • Pledge System: Swimmers collect pledges from friends, family, and the community. Pledges can be:
    • Per Length: A dollar amount for every length completed (e.g., $5.00/length).
    • Flat Donation: A total contribution for participating.
  • Donor Incentive: For any donation of $100 or more, the donor receives a FREE Swim-a-Thon shirt (Youth S–Adult 3XL).

Example (For Pledges)

  • If Danny Wever swims 400 yards (16 lengths) and has a pledge of $5.00 per length, the total donation earned is $80.00.

Please make sure that your athlete either attends the clinic or notify us within 24 hours of the clinic starting, so that we can give your slot to another athlete. No-shows make it difficult for our coaches to plan and mean another athlete misses out on a chance to swim. We want to ensure every spot in the pool is used.
