Hi Friends and Family,

And I’m back, back, back, back again. Team Swim Shady’s back, back, back. . .  tell a friend . . . 

Just like a great Eminem rap mashup, I am pairing my LOVE of swimming with an incredible cause, cancer research. I am swimming on team Swim Shady and supporting Children’s Hospital in an open water 1 mile swim! 

Cancer impacted me personally when my Mom was diagnosed 5 years ago with metastatic skin cancer (despite being the sunscreen queen) and had three surgeries. With a love for sun/water and a genetic predisposition for melanoma, identify causes, treatment and cures for skin cancer, starting early in childhood is important to me! 


Please consider supporting me in this swim and helping fund cancer research and Children’s Hospital! With team Swim Shady, “success is the only option, failure’s not!” 

Thank you and swim on! 

Weston Bicker and Team Swim Shady 

Founded in 1987, Swim Across America has hosted charity swims with one goal: to raise money for innovative cancer research that would lead to breakthrough treatments and therapies. Since then, Swim Across America has raised over $100M to fund the next generation of pioneers in oncology and cancer-support care. 

I joined Swim Across America because I believe in their mission and want to help give more families hope. If you are able, please support me by making a donation to help me reach my fundraising goal. 

Thank you for helping me #MakeWavesToFightCancer.
