Due to COVID-19, Keep Swimming Foundation has postponed the 3rd Annual Gala. We are hopeful that we can be together in 2021. We will update you all via email and social media when a decision is made.
Keep Swimming Foundation’s Annual Gala is one of the most exciting, feel-good evenings of the year! The 3rd Annual Gala is the night where our Midwest donors come together to raise crucial funds to help the families of critically ill individuals. All funds support our mission to help these families afford the non-medical expenses associated with visiting their loved one in the hospital.
The Kentucky Derby is the pinnacle horse racing event of the year. Known for its vibrant atmosphere where sports gambling and fashion collide, the Kentucky Derby has become a staple event in American pop culture. This year, Keep Swimming Foundation is bringing everything that makes the Kentucky Derby special (yes, including the mint julep) to Arlington Heights, IL!
This year’s Gala will feature all of the following (and much more):
Opportunity to Bet on a Special, Filmed, Keep Swimming Foundation-Themed Horse Race
A Chance to Take Home a HUGE Prize via the Golden Ticket Raffle (more information to come)
A Delicious Meal with Complimentary Beer and Wine
Kentucky Derby Inspired Dress Code
Enhanced Registration Check-In
Live and Silent Auctions
By Popular Demand, the Tradition Continues: Heads or Tails (“The Beads Game”)
Ample Photo Opportunities
Plenty of Dancing
And an Ambiance that is Unmatched by Any Event
