Douglas Lake swim-a-thon


Today was the day! Jonathon swam in the Douglas Lake swim-a-thon in Dandridge. He did a great job finishing at one hour and forty minutes.

Look at that pull!
With his boat couple. Every swimmer needed to have a boat to take them out to the starting area and shadow along them in case they needed to get out of the water.

This was a fun event for Jonathon. All of the money went to 2 local charities. One lady said there were over 50 swimmers, almost twice what there were last year. It seemed to be a huge success. I wonder if it will be a tradition for our family?

What a great event. Congratulations on a job well done!! Maybe the rest of the family can swim next year.
Super duper.

Congratulations, Jonathan! That's just wonderful! It would have taken me maybe 24 hours.... I'm so impressed!

I would have needed that rescue boat after about 4 minutes. How awesome to accomplish that, and for a good cause.
