Dressing up for a cause

Jaime Cabral dressed as fitness icon Richard Simmons at the Viking Swim Club Halloween Fundraiser Saturday night. According to Heidi Cabral, approximately 125 people were in attendance and about $27,000 was raised by the auction plus $10,000 more in raffle ticket sales. The funds will cover a substantial portion of the club's operating budget to keep the program functional and affordable for their over 50 swimmers. "We appreciate all the local businesses, individuals and parents who donated to make this such a successful event," Heidi Cabral wrote.
