This summer, swimmers and pool enthusiasts in West Michigan can make a splash for a very worthy cause. Zagers Pool & Spa has partnered with BioGuard Splash for CF, a nationwide fundraiser in support of cystic fibrosis (CF) patients and their local hospital care centers.
Zagers Pool & Spa is making a splash by hosting a Fundraiser for CF on Saturday, July 31, 2010. All locations will be selling droplets and bracelets with proceeds going directly to Splash for CF. Our Saturday, July 31 event, hosted only at the Jamestown location, will feature Clifford - The Big Red Dog, games, prizes, food and fun! Starts at 10am and ends at 2pm.
BioGuard Splash for CF is the creation of 17-year-old Emily Schreiber, an avid swimmer who was diagnosed with CF in January 2003 at the age of nine. Her Laps for Cystic Fibrosis Foundation is a successful non-profit with a variety of local and national events that have grossed more than $1.5million to-date.
This year, Emily and BioGuard have joined forces with the national CF Foundation to make an even bigger impact on research to find a cure for this #1 genetic killer of children. CF is a chronic genetic disease where a defective gene and its protein product cause the body to produce a thick, sticky mucus. This mucus clogs the lungs, leading to life-threatening lung infections, and obstructs the pancreas, preventing natural enzymes from helping the body absorb and break down food.
