26th January


Our normal schedule applied even though it was Australia Day and a good attendance by our members. Conditions were humid and a large crowd down at the bay for the public holiday. There were two feature events:
– Phil Short 400M prize for closest to time
– Geoff Armstrong 50M also for closest to time.
The 400M was won by Ann Wood (F) and Paul Cavanagh (M), who were both under 1 second from their handicap time.
In the 50M Ian Bourke took the prize with an outstanding .04 sec from his time.
Next week sees the start of our Championship races commencing with the Age Champs. Members must have 4 qualifying swims to be eligible for the Age Champs.

Prize sponsor Geoff with winner Ian Bourke. The girls just thought they would get their photo taken.
