Christmas Day Swim

Christmas Day Swim: The attendance at the Christmas Day Swim gets bigger every year. It is organised by Kinvara Swimming and Lifesaving clubs in aid of Galway Hospice. Although numbers are huge, less than €2,000 was collected in each of the last three years. Some years ago over €6,000 was contributed by swimmers and sponsors for this most worthy cause. The swim will take place at 1.00pm on Christmas Day. Come along and exchange greetings, enjoy the swim and the camaraderie and support the Galway Hospice.
