Congratulations to all swimmers!

Welcome to new member William Moore.

Thanks to Phoebe Tully for spotting the inflatable booking tomorrow until 4.30pm  -before our gala. It seems we have to wait while it is cleared away   – hopefully not too long. The pool will still allow you to change from 4pm.

Good luck to everyone. Your team manager is Hayley Acton.

Congratulations to Lucy Bowen who swam 10m for her badge and certificate today. Ĺainey Milligan was presented with her club t-shirt ready for the gala next week.

Any final donations for the tombola need to be given to Barbara next Friday to have tickets attached. Please do not bring items on 28th. 

There is another event near the Leisure Centre starting at 5pm on 28th. It would be advisable to arrive early (before 4pm?) to make sure of a parking spot.

Swimmers are reminded to wear club t-shirts and bring two towels, one for poolside and one for a shower.

Congratulations to Lucy Bowen and Jo Patterson who were presented with their club t-shirts for regular attendance. Welcome to new member Lainey Milligan.

Any last contributions for the tombola need to be given to Barbara so that she can put tickets on before the gala.

Thank you to everyone who has offered to help on the day. There are still two important jobs to be filled if anyone can help.
