In the News

Last week, we were featured in the news!

Carolina in the Morning featured my suit, my swim and my logistics captain, Ben Bowie, on the morning news! Claire Hosmann and her camera crew arrived at the YWCA before most of the other swimmers in the Tri Club.


Here's part of what she wrote on the WECT website:

WILMINGTON, NC (WECT) - Leanne LaFave will be the first person to swim a 10-mile solo course from Carolina Beach to Wrightsville Beach.

LaFave is challenging herself physically to raise funds for ZOE Ministry, an organization dedicated to transforming the lives of African children orphaned by HIV/AIDS, war, disease, famine and other causes.

Tuesday morning WECT caught up with LaFave during her training session at the YWCA.

She says she created the ICW10 Swim for Zoe to combine her love for swimming with her passion for ZOE Ministry.
