You’ve heard of swimming across the English Channel, right?  Well imagine swimming a marathon in a pool!  Imagine swimming 42.2 km or 26.2 miles. 1688 lengths of a 25 meter pool!

 

This is what one of my clients, Tony Lyons is going to attempt to do at the end of the month.  While doing so he is hoping to raise awareness about the CKNW Orphan’s Fund

 

The CKNW Orphan’s Fund has been operating since 1945, and is dedicated to promoting the health and welfare of physically, mentally challenged and disadvantaged children in British Columbia.  When the fund started the mandate was to help children in a local orphanage. Although the orphanage is long gone, the CKNW Orphans’ Fund is dedicated to caring for kids who need help.
