CMSC's Miles For Marly Raises $3,500 for Charity
Cambridge Masters' 2016 edition of "Miles For Marley" 100x100 was a rousing success. On January 3, 120 swimmers from around New England swam while raising $3,500 for the Marly Pineda Scholarship Fund. The scholarship is set up at Marly's alma-mater, Smith College, in honor and memory of the friend and coach lost in 2010. The event saw a record swimmer turnout and record fundraising this year.
