You’ll Never<br />
Swim Alone<br />

<strong>Barrington</strong> buddies Doug McConnell<br />
and Don Macdonald aim to swim the<br />
English Channel this summer. Even though<br />
they’ll be in the water by themselves, they’ll<br />
hardly be swimming alone. Hearts and<br />
minds will be them. This is a total family<br />
enterprise. That’s how it works. And it’s the<br />
most fun any of them have ever had.<br />
Doug McConnell and Don Macdonald are joined<br />
by their wives and daughters at Lake Zurich, where<br />
they both qualified to swim the English Channel. In<br />
