My Story…
Next summer, I’ll be diving into an incredible challenge: swimming in the Point to La Pointe open-water race! As a Captain for All Hands Sailing, I have spent many hours sailing over the course and for the first time next August I will be swimming the 2.1 miles from Bayfield to La Pointe! I’m excited and a little nervous (mostly about how deep and dark the Lake is!) and deeply motivated—because this swim isn’t just about reaching the shore. It’s about supporting a place that means so much to me and the Chequamegon Bay community: the Bayfield Rec Center.
The Rec Center provides essential programs, safe spaces for families, youth activities, health and wellness opportunities, and a welcoming hub for everyone who calls this area home. By supporting my swim, you’ll also be helping fund the Rec Center’s programs, maintenance, and mission to keep our community active, connected, and strong.
Your donation helps me get to the starting line—and helps keep the Rec Center thriving.
If you’re able, please consider contributing. Every dollar makes a real difference, and I’m grateful for any support you can give as I train, prepare, and take on this big adventure.
Thank you for cheering me on!
