Despite the cold, the club hosted a fantastic BBQ at Botany Bay with around 100 people attending.

A huge thank you goes to the Social Committee (Lisa Sullivan and Toni Moon) for organising the event and to Chris Panteli and Nick Baker for allowing the club use of there BBQ’s.

Leading the way was Maisie Macartney with Gold in the 400m Freestyle to go with her silver and bronze. A fantastic acheivement and one for everyone at the club to aspire to.

Both our boys and girls relays performed admirably, smashing their entry times and climbing rankings.
