A successful and record breaking fundraiser for the YMCA Strong Kids Campaign.

The Tour De Trout raised $5,850 and surpassed the goal.

The plan was to raise enough money so 15 children can get swimming lessons.

Officials say 36 children will now get them at the Y.

64 swimmers took part in the initiative.

The Tour De Trout saw swimmers gather to swim in Trout Lake and its major bays.
