About Our Swim-A-Thon
On Friday, July 17th the SHBR Swim Team will dive in for a cause—swimming laps to support The Casey Schulman Foundation. Since 2014, our annual Swim-A-Thon has raised over $100,000 for the Casey Schulman Scholarship Fund.
Casey was a beloved member of the SHBR community—both as a swimmer and instructor. Her life was tragically cut short in 2012 while she was still in college, but her joy and gratitude continue to inspire us! Each year, we swim in her memory and to support scholarships for graduating seniors who share Casey’s curiosity and commitment to uplifting others. Shine on, Casey!

Supporting The Casey Schulman Foundation
Since 2014, the SHBR Swim-A-Thon has partnered with the The Casey Schulman Foundation to support its scholarship program.
Casey Schulman was part of our SHBR swim team and taught swim lessons to many of our swimmers. Casey left us too early, as a college student, in December 2012 and is dearly missed. Casey found joy every day and she was thankful for the simplest of things. Casey shined as a daughter, sister, friend, teammate, and scholar. The SHBR Swim Team honors Casey’s memory through our swim-a-thon. Shine on Casey!
