Not for Profit Swims are for the benefit of the wider Swimming community to access well organised and recognised swim events on a regular basis. As an organisation, we want to cover our costs where we can and offer our volunteers petrol and coffee dollars for their time. Recommended donation is set for each swim based on the expected number of participants and the help needed to safely run the swim. Full event costs , revenue and expenses can be accessed on request.
