Annual Awards Dinner

Hi all

Last Saturday we had our annual Awards Dinner at Frantalia, in Panmure, and what a great evening it was! The venue, menu and service were all great.

Of course, the highlight was the presentation of awards for Club Member of the Year, Most Improved Swimmer, and Swimmer of the Year.

Dave Donaldson was presented with Club Member of the Year. Dave has coordinated regular practice sea swims during the summer at Eastern Beach or Bucklands Beach, and continually offers encouragement and advice to anyone wanting to get involved.

Fiona Grigg was awarded Most Improved Swimmer of the Year. Fiona has made great gains over the last year, knocking large chunks of time from her PBs (including 13 seconds off her 400m Free at the North Island Short Course Champs), and on occasions training up in lane 3.

Dawn Walker was awarded Swimmer of the Year. Dawn has excelled in both open water swimming and in the pool. She placed first and third in her age group in a couple of the Ocean Swim Series swims without a wetsuit. In the pool, she broke two new Zealand records, in 50m & 100m breaststroke (one of which belonged to Rebecca Perrot), as well as winning her age group at the North Island in both 2015 & 2016.

Congratulations to them all!
