Swim Ulster LC Meet 24th-26th May 2013 Bangor Aurora Centre
LCSC Fundraising for Free!
Clear out the Clutter and recycle and help your Club fundraise for free. Last chance this season is before Wednesday 8th May.
Once again our Club’s fundraising supremo, Many McKeown, will be collecting bags of unwanted clothes, shoes, curtains, bed linen etc which can be turned into cash for the Club, benefitting all our swimmers
Earlier in the season we collected 87 bags and raised over £300 for the Club.
Please can you help us better this amount. Just think how much we could raise if every child could fill at least one bag (and how much less clutter we’d all have at home!).
Mandy has arranged for our recycling efforts to be collected and weighed on Wednesday 8th May so bags need to be passed over before this date. Please don’t worry about storage, just bag any unwanted materials and bring them to Mandy who will be at the pool most evenings at the tables in the Gallery.
Thanks once again to Mandy and to all those who continue to support the Club’s fundraising. Let’s get recycling!
Warm Weather Training Camp Spain 2013

A massive thanks to our team managers, Karen, Liza and Jonny, Team Coach, Mark and to the swimmers for making the trip such a success.
Special mention must also go to all the parents, sponsors and friends of the Club who supported the trip through the fundraising activities organised throughout the year.

AUGUST PROGRAMME 2013

Cancellation to training Wednesday 10th April PM session
There will be no training in the main pool for any Squads on Wednesday afternoon from 5:00-7:00pm due to essential maintenance work being carried out.
Cancellations to training Dev 2 and 3
To swimmers & parents in Sunday Dev.2 & 3 Squads,
I would like to apologise for another Sunday cancellation & also the lack of notice. I made the mistake of double booking with another Waterpolo tournament from 10am-4pm this Saturday and Sunday.
There are no further disruptions planned for Sunday sessions that we have been advised of at this time.
The pools will close for maintenance work in the summer from 24th June – 14th July.
With the new 50m Complex now open in Bangor, we would envisage far less disruption to our training & home competition programme in the future.
Apologies for the cancellation.
Yours sincerely,
Richard Gheel.
