Raffle Tickets – Swimming around Manhattan
When passion meets purpose there’s nothing you won’t try to achieve. Thant’s particularly so for our guest athlete, Alexis Puhan MD, from Switzerland.
Alexis is one of those people who isn’t afraid of a challenge. In his professional life he built an international consulting business. In his personal life, he has taken on the extreme sport of Open Water swimming.
How fortunate for Swim Strong that he also believes as we do that drowning is largely preventable. Now we come to his purpose. Alexis will undertake the 20 Bridges Manhattan swim; a 28 nautical mile circumnavigation of Manhattan on July 23rd to raise money for Swim Strong’s scholarship fund.
Will you join us in welcoming him on July 17th; hear his story; wish him success on his upcoming adventure? He will be joined by Ironman Greg Holzman and other NYC OW athletes to talk about what drives them to test their skills in this way. What a great opportunity for those of you who’ve been interested in this sport, but haven’t yet “taken the plunge”.
He is making a difference by raising money to provide 40 at risk NY kids free swim lessons this Summer. Won’t you join us to support him in this great effort?
Can’t be there in person, but want to support Alexis Puhan’s great event and he swims the 28.5 nautical miles around Manhattan?
Purchase tickets for our 50/50 raffle at $10 each. Proceeds to Swim Strong Foundation’s scholarship fund.
