About:
The meet is to raise money for childhood cancer–the money this year goes to Ronald McDonald house.
To raise the money kids get donations for laps. So I thought if we could get the school to help
raise money why not do a Fish Sale, if the kids or staff give a dollar amount they get a paper fish. If kids wanted to donate the change in their pocket, they would get a bubble. We created a Fishmas tree with the names and put it on the wall near the lunch room.
Also, there was a couple of Christmas concerts at school and the kids sold fish at these events, too. About 13 athletes helped in the selling
of the fish. So, the kids have put over 20+ hours into this. Now we have a tree outside the cafeteria door with the names of those who gave, in the shape of a Christmas (fishmas) tree.
