This past Saturday morning two local athletes and professional rowers (Vicky Otmani and Megan Biging) teamed up with Penncrest students to clean Media business store fronts. The group suggested a minimum donation from business owners of $20 per store front to support these local athletes as they prepare to break three world records in the sport of rowing in the Great Pacific Race in 2016 as well as their partnering with the Ocean Conservancy for environmental clean up efforts. For more information on Fight the Kraken and their mission (http://www.fightthekraken.org).
