A scholarship benefit included a Doggy Paddle Relay, T-Shirt Relay and underwater relay as well as the standard swim strokes.
The all girls Ursuline Academy swim team challenged the swim team to a friendly competition to benefit the Christopher Donlon ’12 Scholarship Fund at CM.
Held on October 16 at JuJu Pool in Dedham, the event included relays races, such as the Doggy Paddle Relay, T-Shirt Relay and underwater relay, as well as the standard swim strokes.
The Urusline students who organized the event presented CM president Paul Sheff with a check for $3,500 for the Chris Donlon Scholarship on Oct. 24.
Donlon was a member of the swim team, forensics team and peer ministry, and passed away in March. The first fundraiser for the scholarship fund, "A Knight for Chris," took place in May.
