The club returned to Bucklands Beach this afternoon for the annual handicapped sea swim and family picnic. Conditions were perfect and there was a good turnout. 1000m and 2000m swims were up for grabs and both events were hotly contested.
1000m winners were Jeannie Smith for the women and Alan Hawker for the men. In the 2000m category winners were Sharon Hewetson for the women and Murray Taylor for the men.
Then it was on all on for the food, and what a wonderful spread it was. The club provided the meat, bread and juice and members bought salads and sweet stuff. It was a magnificent feast and a lovely social time was had by all. We even had our own lifeguard, even though she can only just walk and was off-duty.
This annual event is handicapped which levels the playing field for all. Anyone can win so come along next year, it's lots of fun.
