Good Afternoon KISU! One final pre-event email. I am currently in the KISU office writing this as Academy is swimming their 5km swim. We are over $31000 - very close to our goal. I am confident we will reach it as the last few donations trickle in. A few reminders as we head towards the deadline: Those swimming the 5km on Saturday, please arrive in your suit and ready to swim. The doors will open at 7:50am and CLOSE at 8:05am.

Good Evening, We are currently 5 (five!) days away from the end of the fundraising campaign!
