Women Swimmin' for Hospicare 20th Exhibit OPENING on July 12th @ Tompkins Center

Twenty Years Later: Visit Our Exhibit To Celebrate How Far We’ve Swum 

Stop by! An entertaining and informative display commemorating the 20th annual Women Swimmin’ for Hospicare will open on July 12th from 5-8pm in the atrium of the Tompkins Center for History & Culture on the Ithaca Commons featuring posters from each year and a timeline starting with the fundraising idea proposed twenty years ago by Joan Brumberg and Ann Costello. The exhibit includes photos, video and memorabilia celebrating the swims, swimmers, paddlers and boaters, fundraisers and volunteers — and Hospicare’s impact on the people of Cortland and Tompkins counties.
 
The display will be available through September 2023. The Tompkins Center atrium is open Monday-Saturday 10am-5pm. Located in Bank Alley on the Ithaca Commons, visitors can enter through the front door adjacent to the Bernie Milton Pavilion. The street address is 110 North Tioga Street, Ithaca.
 
Thanks for making the exhibit goes to display team leader Linda Mikula and team members Lorraine Heasley, Judy Stewart, Bonni Voiland, and Sara Worden; the staff of The History Center; and sponsors The Image PressWord of Mouth Catering and Jon Reis Photography.
