Swim the us virgin islands!

From now until the end of the fall semester, you can “Swim the Charles.” Each time you swim at the Plex, keep track of how many laps you swim. Then fill out the form and place it in the folder (both found on the swim deck bulletin board).

Registration is easy - Each time you swim laps at the Plex, keep track of how many laps you swim. Then fill out the attached form and place it in the folder.

Also, in response to inquiries about raising money for local charities, Boston College is using its Swim Incentive Program to help participants in their causes. This spring, participants will be charting their virtual miles among the US Virgin Islands with the hope of reaching 93.2 miles (or more!). Although this is an individual endeavor, the Aquatics Department will help anyone who chooses to raise funds by documenting the number of miles completed. We are providing sample pledge sheets for anyone interested in using their laps to support the cause of their choice. Please feel free to take one!

To sign up for the USVI, please e-mail taylorcm@bc.edu with your name, your code name (the name you will use to display your status on the board) and your affiliation with the B.C. community (student, staff, friend of the college, etc.). We will keep a record of your totals and mark how far you go among the USVI. You can enter for fun, to challenge yourself, or to compete with a friend to see who can swim the most! The path between the islands is 93.2 miles long, so get going!!

Enter for fun, challenge yourself, or compete with a friend to see who can swim the most! Sign up today!
