1. A pocket adventure is something all of us can do. Use your imagination, and set a goal that's just a little beyond where you thought you could go -- physically, intellectually, spiritually, whatever. You need not be Richard Branson to have a slice of adventure for yourself.
2. We will be swimming in all five Great Lakes in 24 hours, starting at sunrise on Saturday, July 25th in Lake Superior, and finishing at sunrise on Sunday, July 26 in Lake Ontario.
3. We have partnered with the National Wildlife Federation's Great Lakes Regional Center. The center focuses on restoring, protecting and preserving the Great Lakes, and is doing great work assisting with the development of green energy and mitigating global warming.
We are raising money for the great work that they do, and they are providing us with logistical and technical support -- most notably the use of a Toyota Prius. Using a hybrid vehicle will allow us to complete this adventure in an environmentally-neutral manner.
4. We are hoping that our adventure inspires you to plan your own pocket adventure -- and to support ours. Please give a gift using the widget on the sidebar of this page. I'm asking for multiples of five: $5, $10... $500 if you feel the need.
5. Check back here for updates as we approach and accomplish our pocket adventure. We will be posting pics as we go!
Thanks!
Rob
