On Sat August 10th I will again be participating in Swim Across America with some fellow alums on the "Boston College Eagles" team and hope you will consider supporting me.  

Swim Across America was started many years ago by two BC '84 classmates to raise money for cancer research, treatment and prevention.  There are now about 25 events throughout the country and all money raised locally stays local, with a particular focus on funding higher risk, early-stage research which traditional funding sources often avoid.  The money raised from the Boston event this year will again go to researchers at Dana Farber Institue and Mass General Center for Children.

I keep the list of people I send this to relatively short - if there is someone you know who might be interested in supporting this great cause please forward this note. 

Thank you

Chris
