Swimathon 2012 | The Main Event
The Rotary Club of Milton Keynes held its annual Swimathon at Stantonbury Leisure Centre pool, on Saturday 10th March 2012. 288 swimmers swam a fantastic total of 6329 lengths. The team that swam the most lengths, (with only three swimmers as well,) was 'Buckingham Swans' who swam 178 length in the 55 minutes. On the day those taking part pledged to raise over £20,000. It is now up to them to collect this money! The 'Dead Ducks in the Water' team pledged to raise £1400.00. (Details of how to pay by Just Giving are at the bottom of this page.)
