WOW! What a fantastic Celebration Gala held on Sunday 26th June 2022 in honour of the Queens Platinum Jubilee! All sections across our Society came together to take part in celebrating the Queens Jubilee in this fantastic gala, many of the younger swimmers experiencing a gala for the very first time and setting club records!!
Great swimming! Great Achievements! Great Atmosphere! Message from our Chairman Hello all, I would like to formally congratulate and thank our swimmers and volunteers for all their hard work organising, running and of course swimming in our Jubilee Gala. It was fantastic to see various members from all three of our sections: Learn to Swim (LTS), Competitive and Development (C and D) and Masters. I had great pleasure watching the events, and to hear the encouragement given to all was amazing, seeing the joy and enthusiasm was very special indeed. The level of organisation and running of a gala can take a lot of time and it’s with extra thanks to Jane Easton and David Hill for as always going that extra mile that certainly made the event extra special. The ability of our helpers, teachers, coaches, and volunteers to all pull together for a common cause is inspiring by itself, without you, there is no ES&LSS and so a massive THANK YOU to you all. It was made even better because we had the honour of Rosettes and Medals being awarded by our very own President and first lady, Ron & Pam Snowshall In addition, it was also pleasing to get such positive feedback from you and to hear your stories about how inspired the younger swimmers became after watching the other races, this was exactly one of our main reasons for the event. To give them (and families) a better insight to the Society at large. To see what it is they are working towards The main Committee of ES&LSS (Management Committee) thought it would be very nice if we presented a commemorative medal to each member, celebrating our Queens 70th Jubilee. We started this process on Sunday, you will be able to collect yours when you next attend your normal session. Although this particular Gala was in celebration of the Queens Platinum Jubilee, we are aiming to hold this type of Gala again on a regular basis so if you weren’t able to attend there will be more opportunities. Once again thank you and congratulations to our wonderful swimmers. Kindest regards to all. Martin Pashley Chairman ES&LSS
