Swim-A-Thon

Our Catalina Terrace Marlins Swim Team is one of the few “neighborhood” swim teams remaining in central Tucson. As a 501c3 (non-profit) corporation, we rely on swim team fees, membership dues, corporate sponsors and our annual Swim-a-Thon fundraiser to finance capital repairs and improvement projects for our beloved pool and youth sports facility!

YOUR SUPPORT ENSURES THE FUTURE OF CATALINA TERRACE. Last year, our swimmers raised $10,000, enabling bathroom floor refinishing and repainting. This year at the Swim-A-Thon, Marlins athletes will be raising funds for further improvements including:

• Pump House Filtration and Plumbing System replacement (approx. $26k)

• Labor for bathroom tiling (approx. $7k - $9k - needed)

  • Arizona Tile generously donated the tile for this project
     

HOW DOES IT WORK?  Each swimmer can collect pledges from friends, family, and local businesses! Your swimmer can gather per lap or flat pledges, whichever is best for the donor. Swimmers will be organized into four different waves lasting one hour each. Parents and guardians will count laps (one lap = down and back) and then collect funds from donors following the event.

​

Turn in (both form and money) to our Swim-A-Thon Coordinator, Nadya Novak, who will arrange for a payment location on-deck at practices.

The Marlins swim team is part of CT Athletic Program, Inc., a non-profit 501c3 corporation with a mission to support the swim team and promote youth athletics.

All Swim-A-Thon pledges are tax deductible as a donation on itemized returns.
