Welcome to the Registration page for the Do What You Want to End Alzheimers  - Swim. This event replaces the Longest Day Swim. We are determined to help end Alzheimer’s by raising funds and awareness for the care, support and research efforts of the Alzheimer’s Association.

 Throughout the year  thousands of participants from across the world come together to fight the darkness of Alzheimer’s through a fundraising activity of their choice. Our team is joining the fight! You can help by joining our team — today. 

Please join us on Saturday, August 8, 2026 as a participant in the Do What you Love to End Alzheimers  - Swim. Powel Crosley YMCA has again generously provided a lane to be used for lap swimming for the entire day while the Y is open. Powel Crosley has been supporting this event since 2016.

Powel Crosley YMCA is also providing a guest membership for the day to participants that do not have a YMCA membership. The goal is to allow swimmers to enjoy their sport during one of the longest days of the year while raising awareness of and fundraising for the Alzheimer's Association.

If you cannot participate or join us on August 8  please  join our team and swim where and when your schedule permits.  

The swimming will start when the Y opens at 8:00 AM, and continue until  at 5:30 PM, The Y closes their doors at 6PM. Our goal is to have one or more swimmers in the water at all times. 

When we are finished swimming, after the pool closes,  we will gather at a local establishment (High Grain Brewing,  9176 Winton Road, 45231, 513-791-7000 ) to rehydrate with beverages of your choice. 

 We have created a Signup Genius page to allow participant to sign up for one or more 30 minute periods. The sign up page has room for 4 swimmers per session. Please join us even if your preferred time already has 4 swimmers, we will find a lane for your swim .
