J-Hawks invites the community to a fundraiser on Sunday, May 5 at UW-Whitewater’s Williams Center. The fundraiser includes an Adult Sprint Race (starts at 10 a.m.) to include a 500 yard swim, 13 mile bike ride and three mile run. It also includes a Child Tri (tentatively starting at 2:30 p.m.), which includes a 200 yard swim, a four mile bike ride and a one mile run. The event also features a raffle, snacks and beverages.
All proceeds help benefit the J-Hawk Aquatic Club, which offers a youth swim team and swim lessons to area children. Also, families whose children receive free school lunch do not pay the monthly fees, and families who pay a reduced school lunch fee pay only half of the monthly fees.
