Thank you for your past support! Your generosity can make the difference in reaching our Spring Giving goal of $35,000, matched by special Swim Center supporters! Whether you are a full-time or a part-time islander, join your community in supporting this important capital campaign which will transform San Juan County!
FLIP’s Spring Giving Campaign is in full swing with donations coming in daily. TODAY is GiveBIG day, May 9th and GiveLocal is through May 12th, so if you miss GiveBIG, there is still time!
We are asking for your gift today to support the Capital Campaign for starting construction of the Lopez Swim Center in the fall of 2018. $1.5 million is still needed to begin building. Please note: we must continue fundraising. The State awards we received this year are only for a fraction of the total construction cost.
Lopez elementary students love being in the warm water during FLIP-sponsored annual SWIM DAYS; this year on May 8th and 10th. Let’s make this our LAST year of pulling kids out of school for an entire day to go swimming in Anacortes. Help us Swim Local in 2019! With your support we can:
- Improve Water Safety with LOCAL SWIM LESSONS for your kids and grandchildren.
- Improve Health through LOCAL AQUA THERAPY with a LOCAL PHYSICAL THERAPIST
- Improve Fitness with a LOCAL YEAR-ROUND SWIM CENTER for Recreation
SWIM LOPEZ! SWIM LOCAL! Donate TODAY at www.givebigseattle.org OR www.lopezislandpool.org OR mail a check to: FLIP * P.O. Box 453 * Lopez Island WA 98261
We are grateful for your support! It is your generosity that has brought us this far!
The FLIP Board
