Channeling Care: June 2010

Channeling Care for Cancer

We have joined our love for the water to help those battling cancer. All of us have swam a solo crossing or a member of relay across the English Channel.

Come follow us swim around Manhattan, NY and later across Long Island Sound, all for a good cause.

St. Vincent's Medical Center Foundation, www.swimacrossthesound.org helps patients and families battling the burdens that cancer has faced them.

To view their good work, watch a short video:

Surprise for the team

I have a surprise for the ChannelingCARE relay, I will reveal it to you on Friday after the meeting with the NYCswim 'Powers that Be', www.nycswim.org . I wish everyone (alternates) could join us on the relay this Saturday, it has been a long 8 months of paperwork, qualifying swims (even though, we all have successfully swam across the English Channel) and FUNDRAISING.

A wonderful cause, St. Vincent's Medical Center Foundation, we are trying to help.
Please consider a donation.

Talk to you soon,
marcy

One week until Manhattan

The time is approaching FAST, are we ready for some water fun... you bet!

I was hoping to post a 10 minute video preview of the ChannelingCARE relay, unfortunately I am running into a brick wall, BUT I have posted it FaceBook on the Channeling Care page. I will continue to work on the blog problem but I will be using Facebook if I can't figure it out. Spread the word please.
