Calling all clubs and organisations in the Frome area – would you like to raise some funds for your own club or organisation and at the same time help the Lions raise money for a worthwhile local charity?
This year’s 35th annual charity swim will be held on Sunday 29th March at The Frome Leisure Centre.
Frome Lions say, “We invite you to raise a team of six, to take part in the swim, with each member of the team obtaining their own sponsors.
“The swim is open to all clubs, business houses, schools, associations, youth organisations, family groups etc. There is no limit to the number of teams entered by any one organisation, but no swimmer may enter in more than one team.
“Swimming will take place in 30-minute sessions between 4.00 pm and 8.00 pm. If you wish to swim within a certain period, please make that clear on the relevant section of the entry form.
“This year for the first time we will commence the evening with the pool configured for swimming widths rather than lengths to enable younger swimmers (9 and under) to participate.
“The sponsorship money will be shared (50/50) between a charity of your choice or your own club/school funds and the Frome Lions Club Charitable Trust. For this year’s event, the Lions will be supporting ‘SHINE’ formerly known as the Association for Spina Bifida and Hydrocephalus.
“Application forms are obtainable from the club website www.fromelions.org.uk or: Lion Greg Wood, greg .wood@fromelions.org.uk Tel: 01373 471453
“Entry Forms should be returned by no later than 20th March.”
