Just realized that we never posted a final fundraising tally. The competition ended in May, but we could continue accepting donations through the end of June. Thanks to the generosity of so many, Making Waves raised $56,501.42 for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society🩸‼️ And Ian swam🏊🏻‍♂️‼️
Our sincere thanks to all of you for your support. Lake Michigan next time?? 😂🤣

A couple of cool drone photos from the start where it was calm 🙂. And we are blown away by the support Ian has received for both the swim and the fundraiser. Thank you all so much! ❤️🩸

He took a brief ride while we got through some really rough water. He’s back in now for a strong finish. The Harbor Bar is in sight!!!
