SWIM-A-THON 2022

VPSC is proud of the continuity we have been able to provide in the lives of our membership since the world changed in March 2020 - youth sport has never been more important for our communities' social, physical, and mental wellbeing as it is right now.

In order to continue to grow our club and provide high quality programming at a reasonable price, we need your help!

Our member's continued support and commitment are the reasons for our continued success over the course of the pandemic.

All proceeds raised go to the direct benefit of the entire VPSC membership!
Your support with the Swim-A-Thon will directly affect our ability to continue providing safe and affordable training for our members. Programming is designed to not only enable success at the local, provincial, and national levels, it also allows ALL our swimmers at all levels to continue to improve and pursue their love of the sport.
