Pudsey Bear visited the 2011 Nonsuch Rotary Club Swimathon which took place on the 5 November and joined in the fun. The event went very quickly and we are now waiting for the Sponsorship money to be collected and counted.

At lease 50% of the collection will go to ‘Children in Need’ from Nonsuch Rotary, the other half goes to those who took part to use as they wish.
It was a very busy day with more teams than usual taking part. There were 123 swimmers, including our President Chris Forkan, from the age of 10 up to over 70 in 42 teams. They swam 3596 lengths which is 87.4 Kilometres or 53.8 miles. Each swimmer swam an average of 29.24 lengths which is an excellent average.
Some of those who took part:
Breast Strokers – Conservators Club – Feltham 4 + 1 – Nonsuch High School for Girls – Monday Club – Over Fifties – Rosebery High School for Girls and last but not least Cheam Guides.
