Swimming for Asperger's

Ontarian Jay Serdula has been training for a year in order to swim across Lake Ontario.  He will do the swim on Monday, July 28, to raise funds and awareness of Asperger's Syndrome.  He was diagnosed in 1998 at the age of 26.

The reason is he is doing the nearly 2 day swim is to show what people with Asperger's Syndrome can accomplish.  Jay is a 1996 graduate of the University of Waterloo with a bachelor's degree in applied math with an elective in electrical engineering.  In 2003, he earned his Masters in Physical Oceanography from the Royal Military College of Canada.
