Why I Swim

From a little girl who was always drawn to the water swimming has become my refuge through out all times. At 7:10 pm the Fitzgerald spoke again to the Anderson, at which time McSorley stated, “We are holding our own.” Those were the last words heard from the Fitzgerald. I consider it the greatest honor to be a part of the crew to complete the journey in their memory.

Thank you for supporting me in this historic, once-in-a-lifetime adventure that will carry on the legacy of the 29 men lost on the Edmund Fitzgerald 50 years ago.  By helping me meet my fundraising goal, you are also helping renovate the Whitefish Point Lighthouse that safeguards mariners along Lake Superior's "Shipwreck Coast."
