Organiser's Description
The Nicholas Dworet Memorial Fund Inc. is a 501c3 organization dedicated to the memory of Nicholas Dworet. Nicholas was taken from us on February 14, 2018, at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School. He was a beautiful young man survived by his loving family, mother Annika, father Mitch, brother Alex, and his girlfriend, Daria. Nick was loved by everyone who knew him.
Nick loved to swim, starting when he was just seven years old. He flourished during his last few years in high school, becoming a fantastic student-athlete and earning a swimming scholarship to the University of Indianapolis.
In his memory, the Swim with Nick Ocean Race was created. The proceeds raised from Swim With Nick allow the memorial fund to give back to the swimming community in various ways. To date, event proceeds have led to the distribution of $25,000 in college scholarships. The memorial fund has also engaged the Broward County Special Olympics Swim Community, intending to support their efforts in the future.
Swim4Nick is proud to announce the date and open registration for the 2026 Annual Swim-With-Nick Ocean Race. Join us in celebrating the life of a great young man and honoring his love for his community and the water.
