The TH South Swim Teams, for the 5th year in a row, spent their Halloween collecting canned food for charity. The first year the teams collected 750 lbs. This year, 4,652 lbs. During last year's event, which raised over 5,100 lbs, Catholic Charities shared this reality; to feed those currently in need this food would last five days. To date, the teams have collected and contributed more than 18,000 lbs of food to the needy.
PS: This is a competition as well. In the end, the boys ended up losing to the girls. The losing team gets to make breakfast for the winners following a Saturday morning practice in the near future.
Score: Boys team, 102.3 lbs collected/swimmer - Girls team, 103.4 lbs collected/swimmer
