| San Francisco Bay Area Pool Program
Join the San Francisco Bay Area Pool Program and raise money for cancer. If you love to swim and the open water isn't for you, join our San Francsico Bay Area Pool Program. You can start your own pool swim and use the SAA website to create a team and invite friends to join. You can also swim on your own and use the SAA site to help do your fundraising. Follow these steps and make waves to fight cancer.
Step 1 Register: There are a number of ways to get involved. - Start a swim by registering online and creating a team.
- Join a friend's team by registering online
- Register online to swim as an individual
- If you are under 18, print our waiver and have a parent or guardian sign it. You must bring it to your swim.
Step 2 Spread the word: Let the fundraising begin! - Once you register, you can use our website to send an email blast to your friends and family and ask for support. Copy and paste our newsletter into it to keep them informed.
- You can also download our pledge forms to help loved ones donate offline. Team captains can use our team pledge form and team members (or individual) can use our individual pledge form.
Step 3 - Optional Track you miles - We are up against a tough disease - so we propose an optional challenge not intended for the faint of heart. We challenge you or your team to actually Swim Across America. Together, you can swim 3000 miles - The distance of the US from coast to coast. - Each team member swims x miles per week at his / her local pool and, together, you will eventually swim the equivalent of US.
- Ask family and friends to sponsor your swim - Swimming 3000 miles for cancer will inspire loved ones to support you and your extraordinary efforts.
To help you track how many miles you and your team swim, SAA has partnered with United States Masters Swimming. Use their 'Go The Distance,' Program - A cutting edge method for tracking mileage. Here is your Tracking log. Get Started - Register Now!
