Hugh-a-thon
Saturday, February 18, 2012 12:30pm
Westmont High School
Westmont, IL

Please join 6th graders Charlie Mavon & Jeffrey Vitek to raise money to help cure epilepsy for their friend Hugh O’Donnell.

The Hugh-a-thon will be 30 minutes long. Charlie and Jeffrey will alternate swimming 50 yards (2 laps of the pool) and try to swim as many laps as possible. Every five 50 yards, they will also spin the wheel of fun – that 50 will be a fun stroke, like cork screw or dolphin dives. For every lap they swim (25 yards), they ask that you pledge $0.25. The estimated goal is to swim sixty (60) laps – so that ends up about $15. Of course, any amount will be collected, as every cent makes a difference.

Please make checks payable to CURE and send them to:
Jeffrey Vitek
4125 Franklin Ave
Western Springs, IL 60558
