Denver Press Club Swim Challenge
I'm Bruce Goldberg and I'm in my 9th year as President of the Board of Directors of the Denver Press Club -- the nation's oldest press club.
I plan to swim my birthday laps -- 64 of them, which is exactly 2 miles -- on Wednesday, Oct. 8, in the outdoor pool of the Jewish Community Center in Denver. I'll start at noon. My hope is that those of you love the Denver Press Club, journalism and/or helping a good cause will donate.
We're doing this swim to raise money for our treasury, which we will use to continue to further our mission:
Support for journalism; scholarships for journalism majors at University of Northern Colorado, University of Denver, University of Colorado, Colorado State University-Pueblo, Colorado State University-Fort Collins and Metropolitan State University of Denver; and to operate the club.
Today, the club's nearly 400 members represent print and broadcast media, advertising and public relations, and an assortment of other professions. The roster has included Pulitzer Prize journalists, cartoonists and other notables that feature Damon Runyon, Eugene Field, Gene Fowler, Frederick G. Bonfils, Palmer Hoyt, Lowell Thomas, Lee Taylor Casey, Paul Conrad, Pat Oliphant, Thomas Hornsby Ferril, Carl Akers, Starr Yelland, Stormy Rottman, Lou Kilzer, Greg Lopez, Bob Palmer, Gene Amole, Sam Lusky, and Don Kinney.
