SWIM FOR YOUR HEART
Hi, I'm Tom Bartlett and I am going to become the oldest person to swim across Lake Ontario on my 70th Birthday on August 11th, 2016. Help me achieve this dream and raise life saving funds for the Heart and Stroke Foundation!
Born and raised in Galt, Ontario, swimming has always been a important activity in my life, from an age group competitor, a Master’s competitor to a coach. I have always wanted to swim across Lake Ontario but never got around it to it! So now I have the opportunity to fulfill my dream. I would like to do this for all the children that are affected by heart disease and require medical assistance so they can have a happy and healthy life. I would like to carry out this swim starting on August 10th, 2016 and finish on August 11th, 2016 which will be my 70th birthday. This will make me the oldest person to complete the Lake Ontario Crossing.
You can find me training at the Elmira Swim Complex who have generously donated pool time for training! Donate now to support the Heart and Stroke Foundation and help make this dream a reality.
