All Team Presidents:
Please forward and distribute this e-mail to your team's family roster.
The attached flyer is an announcement of a car wash/bake sale fundraiser, sponsored by the UHS chapter of the Make-a-Wish Foundation, to be held on Saturday May 17th, 8:00 a.m.+ at University High School for Melissa Yu, a critically ill Irvine teenager.
Melissa Yu is a former ISL swimmer for the South Irvine Dolphins team and her older brother has also been an ISL swimmer and coach during the past few years.
Since January, the Yu Family of Irvine have been living through every parent's worst nightmare - a child suffering a sudden catastrophic and life-threatening illness. Please take time out of your family activities on 5/17 to come by and support these teens who are trying to do what they can to help out the family during a difficult time.
Pauline Thiessen
Executive Director
Irvine Swim League
