TYR Sport is proud to support The Mac Crutchfield Foundation and all of its initiatives to develop pro-swimming programs and promote health, fun and safety in the water.<\/p>\n

Established in 2009 to honor the life and passion of twelve year old Mac Crutchfield<\/strong>, The MacCrutchfield Foundation is dedicated to keeping Mac\u2019s love for the water alive by inspiring everyone to swim. On April 14, 2018, TYR Sport will work in conjunction with team TYR athlete Ryan Lochte<\/strong> to support the 10th Annual Mac Crutchfield Dinner and Auction hosted by Windermere Laker Aquatics in Windermere, Florida.<\/p>\n

In addition to swim clinics with some of the world\u2019s top athletes, a portion of the evening will be dedicated to silent and live auctions of swimming memorabilia. All auction funds will go directly to drowning prevention programs and events, as well as the Special Olympics.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are truly in awe of the love and support we have received from the TYR Family, and we are proud to call them a part of ours,\u201d began Mac Crutchfield Foundation Founder Maggie Crutchfield<\/strong>. \u201cThe impact we are going to have on drowning prevention and helping individuals to develop a love for the water is expanding beyond the state of Florida, and we thank TYR Sport
\nfor their part in that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alex Dehner<\/strong>, Head Coach of Windermere Laker Aquatics and a former friend of Mac\u2019s, shared in the sentiment stating, \u201cIt\u2019s an honor to know that by hosting this event we can help support drowning prevention awareness and the Special Olympics, all the while teaching kids about my friend, and his love for swimming. We\u2019re excited to be working with TYR to bring Mac\u2019s passions
\nto life.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is humbling to see firsthand how deeply Mac has impacted the swim community,\u201d began TYR Sport Chief Executive Officer Matt DiLorenzo<\/strong>. \u201cHe has been embraced not only because of his story, but also because of the passion he had for the things he loved. The Foundation\u2019s success is a true testament to Mac\u2019s family and their ability to transform unthinkable tragedy into service for the world. As a brand, we are incredibly proud to share in their cause.\u201d<\/p>\n
