A Night of Southern Hospitality
Dinner with an Olympic Swimmer
We will be holding the annual Dinner with an Olympic Swimmer, this year’s theme “A Night of Southern Hospitality,” on March 13, 2010, at the home of the Crutchfield Family.
This is one of the Foundation’s two major fund-raising events. This year we are asking local merchants and vendors to donate items or services to the silent auction. Your tax-deductible donation will assist the Foundation in supporting Special Olympic Swimmers and scholarships for college-level student athletes (swimmers).

Honor his Life
The Mac Crutchfield Foundation was set up to honor the life and passions of Mac Crutchfield. Mac Crutchfield tragically drowned while playing in a downpour near his home. A child playing like a child should. The sad irony is that Mac was a dedicated and accomplished swimmer on the Area Tallahassee Aquatics Team.
In order to keep Mac’s dreams and passions alive Mac’s family established the Mac Crutchfield Foundation. The Mac Crutchfield Foundation has two streams of giving to the world that honor Mac’s passions:
College Swim Scholarships
Mac dreamed of swimming in college on his way to the Olympics. Many kids would love to be able to swim for a college team but there are a very limited number of swim scholarships throughout the country and that number is shrinking. The Mac Crutchfield Foundation would love to make it possible for many more young people to enjoy the thrill of being on a college swim team!
Special Olympics Swim Meets
Mac had a special place in his heart for his Special Olympics teammates. He cheered extra loudly for them and he always had a hug for their efforts. Mac said that he was so impressed with how hard these Special Olympians worked. Mac would be proud that we put so much effort into annually putting on a first class swim meet for his Special Olympics friends!
We hope you will find it in your heart to help keep Mac’s passions and desires alive and thriving by donating to The Mac Crutchfield Foundation.
