The Husky Swimming Foundation is proud to announce some exciting news: the 64th Annual Husky Invitational will be the biggest edition of the meet since it’s inception in the 1940s! We will be hosting over 1,000 athletes and 75 clubs from around the United States and Canada.
This is a huge endeavor and we are in need of volunteers. Due to the size of the meet, we will be running two competition pools for the preliminary sessions, which means we need to double our volunteer effort. If you can find a way to donate a few hours of your time, the Husky Swimming Foundation would greatly appreciate it.
We are seeking timers for all sessions. The meet begins on Friday, November 30th and concludes Sunday, December 2nd. Morning sessions begin at 9:30am. Evening sessions begin at 6:00pm on Friday and Saturday and at 5:00pm on Sunday. We need volunteers to arrive 30 minutes prior to each start time.
The swimming community is supporting our organization in incredible numbers and we need the Husky community to help make the Husky Invitational a great experience for everyone. If you can help us out, please email Brandon Drawz as soon as possible…

Dear friends and supporters of Husky Swimming:
It’s been quite a year for our foundation! Last year we hosted our second “resurrected” Husky Invitational—its 63rd. The meet has been a great success, not only in preserving the excellence and tradition of this fine event as well as serving hundreds of athletes, but more importantly, raising awareness about our mission.
Coupled with this event, we held our first ever Husky Swimming Foundation gala and auction at the Columbia tower club in downtown Seattle. It was an evening of fun, reconnecting with old friends, and, of course, a chance to further our cause. We even had a guest appearance from the legendary Coach Ellis himself! I’d like to extend well deserved thanks to all those who made it possible—especially Cat Clark, Genevieve Patterson, Kelly Corcoran and Cam Gravrock.
With a successful year behind us, we are forging ahead to what will surely be an even brighter future. In addition to hosting the 64th annual Husky Invite, November 30th-December 2nd. Once more, on Thursday, November 29th, we are planning a spectacular gala for all of our supporters and friends to attend —please save the date!
Further, the weekend of September 28th, also the home football game against Stanford, we will be having one of our semi-annual “face-to-face” board meetings. If you are interested in attending, or have any suggestions for the group, you/they would be truly appreciated. The main topic of discussion will be: “Where do we want our foundation to be in four years?” Perhaps of more interest, the HSF will be hosting a get together at 6:00pm at The Ram on September 28th. Once again, your attendance would be most welcome.
Finally, I would like to thank you for your continued support of the Husky Swimming Foundation!
Warm Regards,
Brandon Drawz “BD”

What: Husky Swimming Foundation Holiday Party When: December 1, 2011, 6:00 pm Where: Columbia Tower Club, Seattle, Washington Cost: FREEThe HSF board is issuing a challenge to our alumni and supporters! As we near the 63rd edition of the Husky Invitational, we are reaching out to you for help in making this year’s meet more successful than ever. Last year, HSF was able to raise significant funds and build incredible community goodwill at the Husky Invite. However, we want to do even better in 2011. We need your help in two areas: (1) Financial Support and (2) Volunteers.
At the suggestion of the “old guard” we are seeking help in areas based on your era of Husky Swimming. The charter members of the original Husky Swim Club are working to sponsor the awards for this year’s meet. Why not get our other generations involved as well?!? So here is the challenge: Reach out to your old teammates and encourage them to join you in opening your wallets just a bit (no donation is too small). Each generation of swimmers will be charged with an area of the meet and we’ll see who can meet their goal first. Here are assignments for each major expense of the meet:
If each of our groups can raise $1,500, then the bulk of our costs will be covered and the Husky Invite will see another successful and fast meet. The winning “team” will get a commemorative medal for each contributing member of the team.
You can contribute by check or by using our online contribution format (allows for both credit card and PayPal transactions). If you are able to support the meet, please make sure to send Ryan Stratton an email with your name, address and Class Year and then contribute online or by mailing a check to: Husky Swimming Foundation, 398 S. 9th St., Suite 290, Boise, ID 83702. Remember, all contributions to the Husky Swimming Foundation are tax deductible!
If you are interested in contributing a few hours of volunteer efforts, then please get in touch with Ryan or Kelly Corcoran. The meet is December 2-4 and we will need timers and officials for morning and evening sessions!
Thanks for all of your support!
