Our partner organization TN Aquatics hosts an annual Swim-A-Thon.  It’s a great opportunity to bring family and friends together for some fun while supporting TN Aquatics programs at the Pilot Family Y.

What are we raising money for?
This year, all funds raised will go toward the purchase of the outdoor pool heater at our Pilot Family YMCA in West Knoxville. This will help expand access to year-round training for all of Tennessee Aquatics’ programs, including the competitive team, the Tridents, and Masters team.  Y members will also enjoy year-round lap swim with the addition of a pool heater to lengthen the outdoor pool season.

In addition, 5% of the total raised will be donated to the USA Swimming Foundation, supporting swimmers and swim programs nationwide.

Our goal is to rally our community and raise meaningful support for both our team and the sport we love. With your help, we can make a lasting impact — thank you for supporting the 2025 Swim-a-Thon!

What is a Swim-a-Thon?
Swim-a-Thon is a USA Swimming Foundation approved fundraiser used by swim teams all over the United States to raise money for their respective club. To raise money for Swim-a-Thon, swimmers receive pledges and donations from family members, friends, neighbors, and local businesses.
