We have received this letter from NASCH regarding the Woodlarks Camp on 21at to 28th May 2016. Applications for places on the camp and deposits have to be returned by 25th February 2016. Marie Clarke has the application form for our club.

On 22nd January Aidan Tully completed his National Plan Stage 2 and Cole Lyson completed Stage 8. Zac Daffern was presented with his club T shirt that he qualified for many moons ago. He still has a lot of growing to do before it will fit but it will be a useful cover all if he swims in a gala.

The Tamworth Gala is being held on Saturday 21st May, at The Peaks Leisure Centre. It will be the 40th Anniversary one and the club has reverted to the previous format of 25m and 50m races. There are also 5 age groups this year instead of 3. Entry Forms to be returned to Sheila Carey, no later than 12th February please.
