The MS Society is excited to be bringing its Swim for MS back to Arena Joondalup on Sunday 9th June
Last year the Arena Team (Flower Power) blitzed the most laps for the day and raised $435 for the MS Society

Info from the organisers:
Swim for MS 10-hour Relay Challenge
The concept of the swim is simple – each team (up to ten swimmers) has a member swimming in the pool during the ten-hour event. Any swim style will do as long as no flippers are used. As points are awarded for laps swum and dollars raised you don’t have to be the fastest team to win! We also award many prizes throughout the day, from biggest splash, funky trunks and team spirit! So dress to impress and come prepared!
How far will you your team swim in ten hours? (That’s right solo swimmers can enter too!)
• Rottnest – 20km (400 laps)
• English Channel – 35km (700 laps)
This event is being held to raise money for Western Australians living with multiple sclerosis (MS). Everyone who registers gets access to their very own fundraising webpage. This page is safe and secure and makes online fundraising easy for you and your sponsors.
If you would like to know more about this event, or are keen to enter an Arena team let Paul Manning know. If we can’t put a team together you can still take part as a solo entrant. Parents, family members even coaches are also encouraged to enter
Note that this event is on the same day as Breakers Pentathlon – discuss with your coach if you are targeting this meet
