Flamingo Aquatics has teamed up with the Childhood Cancer Foundation of South Africa to raise funds for their crucial work.
THIS weekend, the Karen Muir Swimming Pool in Kimberley will be the battleground for the highly anticipated Flamingo Aquatics annual swimming gala. Swimmers hailing from Bloemfontein, Kimberley, Hartswater, Prieska, Kathu, Jacobsdal, and Upington, are set to dive into the competition.
With approximately 120 swimmers across different age groups and skill levels, the event promises exciting races in freestyle, breaststroke, butterfly, and backstroke, with distances ranging from 50 to 800 metres. It’s a showcase of talent and sportsmanship.
This year’s gala isn’t just about swimming prowess; it’s also about giving back. Flamingo Aquatics has teamed up with the Childhood Cancer Foundation of South Africa (CHOC) to raise funds for their crucial work.
CHOC is a non-profit organisation committed to supporting children and teenagers diagnosed with cancer or life-threatening blood disorders, along with their families. By providing psychosocial, emotional, and practical support, they complement the efforts of the medical community, aiming to save lives through early detection and comprehensive support programmes.
Therefore, by being part of this event, you’re contributing to the noble cause of CHOC, helping children and families facing the challenges of cancer.
Join us this weekend at the Karen Muir Swimming Poo to enjoy some exciting competitive swimming and make a meaningful impact in the fight against childhood cancer. It’s an event that unites the community for a weekend of sportsmanship and charity.
