For Everyone Who Cares to Have Fun!

The 27th annual Swimathon for Victoria Hospice is back - with a new format!

This year's event runs from Sunday May 13, 2012 to Sunday May 20, 2012, at nine Victoria-area recreation centres.

Get into the swim of it!

At the Swimathon for Victoria Hospice, individuals are encouraged to raise funds and swim in this great family event. Swimmers of all ages and abilities, families and friends are invited to join in the fun! Individuals can raise funds by collecting pledges for swimming laps.

Pools open to participants during regular length swim times.

This year, instead of a one-day event, swimmers can use any of nine Participating Recreation Facilities throughout the week. They include:

  • Commonwealth Place, District of Saanich, 4636 Elk Lake Drive
  • Crystal Pool and Fitness Centre, City of Victoria, 2275 Quadra Street
  • Esquimalt Recreation Centre, Township of Esquimalt, 527 Fraser Street
