On August 15 the Procter sisters will once again swim across Sharbot Lake to help in the fight against cancer. Over the past six years the girls have raised over $10,000 and they need your help to make this year’s swim another success.
The girls will jump into the water at the Sharbot Lake Provincial Park at 10am and swim the 3kms to the Oso Township Beach, arriving at about 11:30am. Having grown up in Sharbot Lake, the sisters enjoy the challenge of swimming across the lake they know so well. In past years, loons have joined in as swimming companions and high waves have tested their perseverance.
Donations can be made online at http://convio.cancer.ca/goto/hopeswim2015 or at Northern Frontenac Community Services. Mark August 15 on your calendar and plan to be at the Sharbot Lake beach at 11:30am to cheer on the girls.
