Kayaker Volunteers Needed for Krossin’ Keuka
Keuka Comfort Care Home (KCCH) is looking for kayaker
volunteers for its most important fund-raiser, Krossin’ Keuka, the morning of
Saturday, July 29th. If you are not familiar with KCCH, we provide
hospice-like, end-of-life service to residents and their families at no
cost. We are able to do this through
donations and fund-raising events. One
of our largest fund-raising events is Krossin’ Keuka, where participants get
sponsors and swim across Keuka at Keuka College’s Point Neamo, approximately
2/3 of a mile.
Such an event requires a large number of volunteers to
assure the safety of the nearly 150 swimmers. We are in need of some additional kayakers who
line the course and provide support for the swimmers as they proceed. The event begins at 8 a.m. and wraps up
around 11 a.m. There will be an
orientation/training session on an evening the week before the event,
specific time and date to be determined.
If you are interested in this fun, but important volunteer
opportunity, we would appreciate your help.
Contact me by email kmjring@gmail.com
or phone 585-261-8375, and I will fill you in on further details. Thanks for your consideration.
