Kelly Stapleton is one of the founders of the Lynbrook Pool Swim Across America. For the past 12 years of the event her sister Meghan Kovavs has given her support, coming up from Maryland with her kids to participate. Well this year Meghan, along with her 2 boys have set up their own pool swim event in Towson Maryland! Best of luck to Meghan. Logan, James and all the participants at the Hudson Hammerheads Swim Across America Pool swim on August 28th! It’s wonderful to see the growth of our pool swims and the new generation of swimmers joining in for this most deserving cause! https://www.swimacrossamerica.org/site//PoolSwim/Baltimore
