About:
The Chenango Forks and Windsor Varsity and Modified girls’ swim teams made a big splash, not only in the pool but in their efforts to support important causes. With 26 athletes representing Chenango Forks and 16 from Windsor, the girls came together in a powerful display of teamwork and community service.
The teams organized a fun and engaging duck toss game, complete with prizes for winners, alongside a t-shirt and bake sale to raise funds for the Mercy House and the American Cancer Society. In an inspiring show of solidarity and support for breast cancer awareness, the girls wore pink suits and caps. They also created a heartfelt tribute by displaying the names of family and friends who have fought or are currently fighting breast cancer, a touching reminder of the impact of their efforts.
Together, these amazing athletes and their families raised $342, with $222 donated to the Mercy House and $120 going to the American Cancer Society. This event demonstrated the power of coming together to make a difference and the compassion and commitment these young athletes have for their community.
Thank you to all who participated, supported, and contributed to this meaningful cause!
