Held back in February, this event was a brilliant example of what can happen when ๐๐ฅ๐ฎ๐ ๐ฆ๐๐ฆ๐๐๐ซ๐ฌ are ๐๐ฆ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฐ๐๐ซ๐๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ ๐ volunteers, businesses and the wider community to ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ ๐ญ๐จ๐ ๐๐ญ๐ก๐๐ซ ๐๐๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ ๐ ๐ฌ๐ก๐๐ซ๐๐ ๐ฉ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ฉ๐จ๐ฌ๐.

This award is really about the ๐ฉ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ฅ๐ who made it happen:
โ the idea from a passionate junior member,
โ the volunteers who gave their time,
โ the water safety crews who kept everyone safe,
โ the club members who brought the idea to life,
โ Hazell Bros and other sponsors for getting behind it,
โ and every swimmer, supporter and donor who played their part.
Itโs a perfect example of ๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐ง๐ข๐ญ๐ฒ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ ๐๐ฆ๐๐ง๐ญ ๐ข๐ง ๐๐๐ญ๐ข๐จ๐ง: when a club opens its doors, the community gets behind an idea, and everyone contributes what they can, the result can be genuinely exceptional. ๐ค
