Breaking news from our apparel team: The spirit wear store is now open year-round!

Click on THIS LINK to see all the great EBSC apparel available at Burghardt's. Whether you're still eyeing a piece from our September sale or looking for holiday gifts, EBSC spirit wear is always a great choice! Happy shopping, Gators!
Please note: all items in the year-round store are slightly more expensive and the inventory more limited than our annual spirit wear sale in September due to the nature of each order's quick processing and availability within 7-10 business days (sometimes sooner!). Items can be picked up at the New Berlin location or shipped directly to your home.
Moving forward, the link to the year-round spirit wear store will be at the bottom of every Gator Blast.
2025 Swim-A-Long - There’s Still Time To Donate!

The 2025 EBSC Swim-A-Long fundraiser is in the books! Last Saturday’s event was a great success. Thank you to everyone who participated!
Our appreciation goes to the planning committee who pulled the event together – Andrea Yttre, Michael Balter, Jennifer Braley, Kara Goodrick, Katy Mittelstadt, Krista Nowak, and Kristin Parulski. They prepared snacks and drinks for event, solicited donations, and helped to organize a fun morning for our swimmers!
A special shout out to the Pewaukee Costco who generously donated to the event!
There is still time to contribute to the fundraiser. The Swim-A-Long donation platform will be open through Saturday, December 13.
In the coming weeks, we will announce our top fundraisers and prize winners!
