What a weekend !
63 swimmers raised close to $10,000 for Shepparton’s MS 24-hour Mega Swim at Aquamoves on February 18th and 19th.
“The MS 24 Hour Mega Swim is a fun team relay event where teams have a swimmer in the water for the entire 24 hours and compete for laps swum and money raised, in support for people living with multiple sclerosis. It is one of Australia’s most popular and fastest-growing fundraising events, bringing communities together.”
It was really great to hear from MS Ambassador, Barry Fleming (Go For Gold Recipient)
– MS Go for Gold Scholarships are open to people living with multiple sclerosis who wish to follow a dream.
