With ghost and goblin season just around the corner, it’s time to get into the swim of things by taking part in the Spooky Splash Swim Meet hosted by the Camana Bay Aquatic Club (CBAC).

“It’s open to everyone,” says Coach Katie Lambert. “We want to encourage more young swimmers to come out and participate in local meets.”

The CBAC Spooky Splash Meet is set for Saturday 29 October at the Camana Bay pool. Warm-up will start at 7:30 a.m. and the meet starts at 8:30 a.m. It is the first swim meet hosted by the competitive swim club, and it will be dressed around a Halloween theme, with a few surprises in store for all participants.

“It will be a lot of fun,” says Coach Katie. “This meet is for swimmers of all abilities who are looking for the challenge of racing other swimmers.”

The CBAC Spooky Splash Meet will feature seven race events in the 10 and under and open categories: 50-metre butterfly, 50-metre backstroke, 50-metre breaststroke, 50-metre freestyle,

100-metre freestyle, 100-metre backstroke and 200-metre individual medley. There will also be four

25-metre races in the six and under age group: butterfly, backstroke, breaststroke and freestyle.

Non-Camana Bay Aquatic Club members pay a registration fee of $10 and all swimmers pay a fee of $2 per event.
