County Swimming Gala 2008
Saturday 15th March 2008
On a wet cold Saturday evening at the Fullwell Cross Swimming People the County held its Annual Swimming Gala on Saturday 15th March 2008, ten Districts entered teams in to the Gala.
Although it was a miserable evening outside, it was fantastic evening inside, to see Beavers Scouts, Cubs Scouts, Scouts and Explorers Scouts having so much fun competing against one another for medals and trophies.
Due to the lack of a working PA system it was made very difficult, but Charles Paddon came to the rescue and acted as our PA system, announcing every event in a clear and audible voice. I would like to thank him for all his help in making the Gala possible.
There are so many other people that I would like to thank for there help, too many to list and I do not want to forget anybody, you all helped make this one of the best Galas we have had in years. To you all thank for a job well done.
I would like to congratulate all the swimmers and the winners for all there hard work and sportsmanship.
