Your Most Rewarding Challenge
This year we're doing something a little different.
When you register online to swim in one of the three Cole Classic events, you can choose a charity to swim for. You simply nominate the charity of your choice, and your very own web page will be created for you, allowing your friends, family and workmates to sponsor you and send a message of support.
It's easy! How much money do you think you can raise? With the Cole Classic, a drop in the ocean could make a HUGE difference!
How it works
At the end of the Online Registration Form you will be given the option to build your own online fundraising web page. If you wish to swim for a charity, simply click the big blue "build an online fundraising page" button and you will be sent to everydayhero.com.au where a personalised web page, called a Hero Page, will be created for you. You can create an Individual page or a Team page.
Now all you have to do is give the address of your Hero Page to your friends, family and workmates and ask them to visit your Hero Page to sponsor your swim and leave a message of support. Everydayhero.com.au takes care of everything else, all you have to do now is have a great swim and enjoy the 2008 Cole Classic @ Manly!
As an example, here is the Hero page of James Pittar who is going to give it ago...
Can I get a Hero Page if I don't Enter Online?
Yes you can create your own Hero Page at anytime, just visit the special Cole Classic page at Everydayhero.com.au and click the red "Build a Hero Page" button. It only takes a minute to create your Hero Page — there's nothing to it.
Can I just donate some money instead?
If you don't wish to swim for a charity and be sponsored, we recommend that you encourage a fellow swimmer who has set up a Cole Classic Hero Page. You can find someone to sponsor by visiting the Cole Classic "Sponsor a Friend" page.
