Helping Kids
C.S.
Mott Children's Hospital
In
its first annual 2007 Swim-A-Thon, Club Wolverine donated $10,000
of its proceeds to the University of Michigan Comprehensive Cancer
Center of C.S. Mott Children's Hospital. In a great example of
kids helping kids, hundreds of CW swimmers took to the pool lanes
to give back to their community and to make a difference in the
lives of Mott pediatric patients and their families. Be sure to
join us May 2, 2008, for the second
annual Club Wolverine Swim-A-Thon!

| Club
Wolverine actively seeks to keep the spirit of Eric Namesnik,
a former Olympian and Ann Arbor-area swim coach, alive through

The fund was established to
support his two young children

throughout the year allow CW swimmers to give back to “Snik”
and his young family. |
