Rewards
On completion of a swimmer's first swim, they receive a patch with the logo of the swim, a bumper sticker with the logo and website, and get to sign the wall of fame. On the twenty-fifth crossing swimmers receive a white racing cap with the logo. On the one hundredth crossing, swimmers are inducted into the 100K club, their name is highlighted in yellow on the wall of fame, a bio is posted on the official web site, and they receive a baseball cap with the lake cane monster logo. At 150 crossings, swimmers receive a yellow racing cap, 200 crossings a T-shirt, and at 500 crossings a silver racing cap.

Famous quotes containing the word rewards:
“Youth enters the world with very happy prejudices in her own favour. She imagines herself not only certain of accomplishing every adventure, but of obtaining those rewards which the accomplishment may deserve. She is not easily persuaded to believe that the force of merit can be resisted by obstinacy and avarice, or its lustre darkened by envy and malignity.”
—Samuel Johnson (1709–1784)
“Perhaps a modern society can remain stable only by eliminating adolescence, by giving its young, from the age of ten, the skills, responsibilities, and rewards of grownups, and opportunities for action in all spheres of life. Adolescence should be a time of useful action, while book learning and scholarship should be a preoccupation of adults.”
—Eric Hoffer (1902–1983)
“And soon it is neither here nor there
Whether time’s rewards are fair or unfair.”
—Robert Frost (1874–1963)
